I'm preparing a booklet of figures which are stored in a directory, however their is no structure in their naming. I could go through them all and rename them along the lines of Pict1.jpg, Pict2.jpg etc and \dostepwiserecurse as in the example below
\setupexternalfigures [directory={/a/directory}] \starttext \dostepwiserecurse{1}{10}{1} { \externalfigure[Pict\recurselevel.jpg] } \stoptext
However, I was wondering if was possible to iterate through the directory using a wildcard and have something like
\externalfigure[*.jpg}
to make it generic, or would I have to use lua.
\startluacode for _, name in ipairs(dir.glob("*.jpg")) do context.externalfigure { name } end \stopluacode ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | www.pragma-ade.nl | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------
