greetings - is there a way to randomly load files into a buffer~/sfplay~ object from the hard disk? i can automate a patch to get to the file selection screen up - that's easy peasy - where i come a cropper is in persuading it to randomly pick sound files from within a given folder and, imagining for a moment that this hypothetical 'random soundfile' is located, in sending the mac a 'choose' command to clinch the deal

any help would be much appreciated, havn't been able to find anything on the forum so far
