Hi Richard,

Hello list,

I want to write a tool for Mac OS X, which asks for a folder with some mp3-Files within and after that concatenates them into one file.

By googling I found this tip:

1. Place mp3s on Desktop
2. Open terminal and type cd Desktop
3. Type cat *.mp3 > giveitaname.mp3

I tried and it worked.

Now I want to script it in Revolution; as I don“t know anything about unix and shell and so on, may anyone helpfully tell me, how to script it:

-----

Try this (not tested):
...
answer folder "Where are the mp3-files to Concatenate?"
put it into sourcefolder
ask file "What is the path to the resulting file?"
put it into targetpath
get shell("cd" && QUOTE & sourcefolder & QUOTE)
get shell("cat *.mp3 >" && QUOTE & targetpath & QUOTE)
...


You should check "the result" after each "get shell..."
It is EMPTY on succes, and not otherwise :-)

Thank you for your help.
Richard.

Regards
