Would it be possible to work in an “Auto-Join Orc/Sco” setting for the next build of QuteCsound (much like the way MacCsound handled orc/sco files of the same name)? I appreciate the ability to have multiple tabs open at once very much, and if there was a way to implement it so successive tabs of the same name were automatically linked it would greatly ease the workflow when exploring The Csound Book examples or Catalog instruments. Thank you – and Congratulations on the release of 0.60 – it is a fantastic frontend.
Best, Colman |

Hi Colman, It's there. If you open an orc or sco file, you will be prompted for the name of the auto-joined file. Is it not working? Cheers, Andrés On Thu, Jul 29, 2010 at 2:26 PM, Colman O'Reilly |

Sorry, I should have articulated my request better. That is working and is really helpful when dealing with just one or two tabs, but when the number grows to 6-8 it begins getting a bit tedious to dig through and select the proper file (especially when their file path is longer than the selection box... the scrolling and searching is a bit disruptive to what is otherwise a very streamlined interface). It seems like you have most of the functionality in place, I was only suggesting that the step of actively selecting the file to auto-join be truly automatic if there is an orc and sco file open with the same name.
I'm sure you have a lot more on your plate to worry about, but if this could be worked in as well I think it would be helpful to a lot of people (if only in a small way). Thanks!
Colman

what's your platform? it should be easy to write a shell script which automatically generates .csd files from .orc and .sco files of the same name in a folder. joachim Am 30.07.2010 um 00:42 schrieb Colman O'Reilly: > Sorry, I should have articulated my request better. > > That is working and is really helpful when dealing with just one or > two tabs, but when the number grows to 6-8 it begins getting a bit > tedious to dig through and select the proper file (especially when > their file path is longer than the selection box... the scrolling > and searching is a bit disruptive to what is otherwise a very > streamlined interface).

Hi, That is already the case, if you execute the auto-join action, the selected files are the currently active orc file and a sco with the same name if it is open in QuteCsound. However, it would not work if you had the .sco file selected (the dialog just would not pop up). I have fixed this in my sources, so it will work from sco files as well. BTW have you tried the Auto-join option in the preferences? If you use this, whenever an orc or sco file is opened you will be automatically prompted for the name of the joined csd file.

Great idea - I'm not sure why I didn't just start with that. I'm on 10.6, it shouldn't be hard to do at all. Thank you!
