Re: [squeakland] File error on open and sound reverb problem again

Karl,

I'll try this file out later today. The sound compression could be very useful.

One question occurs to me: Is there a process that can act on a batch
of Etoys project files in succession to change an aspect of the
contents? For example, in the about flap, there is some text that
refers to the year published. Could a script traverse all 700 files at
some future point to change the year?

Mike
