I just made [getfilenames] which I think it much easier to use than [folder_list]. Its not released in any form yet, its just in SVN:

svn co https://pure-data.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/pure-data/trunk/externals/ezfile
cd ezfile
make

Its the first in a library called 'ezfile' that aims to be a complete collection of easy-to-use objects for doing things with filenames.

ah! ok I found it...thanks :)
can I send it multiple filetypes too? or is the properties field the only way to filter?

OK if I understand correctly: it can't distinguish between a patch and an external?
