I'm assuming you feed the input of [hcs/folder_list] with the message [symbol [!.]*( yes? When I do I get an error where it doesn't find any files. [folder_list] nothing found for "C:/Users/username/Music/Samples/crotales/[!.]*.wav"
I am not sure it's actually disregarding hidden files but more likely looking for a file that starts with "[!.]". Am I wrong?
