Hi, I just set out to write a tinyscheme script that retrieves the list of files from a folder using file-glob and although it looks trivial I can't get it to work.
the line in question is:
(let* (filepaths (cadr (file-glob (string-append input-path "*.png") 0))))
which always returns empty whether I place it in a script or type a version into the console. Gimp just tells me that parameter 1 to cdr needs to be a pair.
Yes, I have verified that the folder pointed to by input-path exists and that there is at least one png file in it.Permissions are ok (I can load the file explicitly)
I have tried unix style and windows style path separator: nothing works.
I can hardly believe something this fundamental is actually broken - is there something about my setup that is wrong? I have a standard 3.04 installation using the windows installer any insights are appreciated.
