yeah, that's great. I have a n external that does that [slice] and would
gladly remove it for a vanilla solution.

yup, this is the issue, when splitting a file with a space, like
*Users/porres/Desktop/rename\
copy.pd*

I get:

 list / Users porres Desktop *list\ rename\ copy.pd*

so for the file name I actually get *symbol list\ rename\ copy.pd*

that seems very high-level to me.

I'll insist and say I think it'd be really nice if we could have a [file
seek] object that browses through files in a directory. But anyway, I can
keep using [else/dir] for that.
