Hey hey,
I think I have just found an error with the directory opcode. With directories 
up to two letters the files list contains the filenames as they are inside the 
directory. When a directory has three or more letters, the directory name is 
included in the filenames.
i.e.
Sfiles[] directory "x/", ".wav"
Sfiles[0]: a.wav
Sfiles2[] directory "xyz/", ".wav"
Sfiles2[0] = xyz/a.wav

I accidentally discovered that by using my m_samplebank opcodes with a proper 
realworld directory name.

I am running the arch package of Csound version 6.15 (September 7 2020)

Can someone verify that behaviour? Is it to a degree intentional?

Best wishes,

Jeanette

Many thanks! No hurry on my account. I've worked around it for now. :)

you may have thought: if there are less than two beers, it is not worth 
mentioning?

Not sure if there is a difference between them now. the manual DID say
at some point that you can only directly assign a string from p4, for
further p-fields you should use strget. Though a lot has happened to
strings.

Best wishes,

i think this should work:
	Sfiles[] directory strget(p4)

as i understand it, we have to tell csound that p4 is a string, and 
that's what strget does.  so it is probably most safe and clear.
