Hey all,

I've got an idea for a plugin that I want tpo make, but at the moment I don't have a clue how to do anything of it. My Python skills are somewhat limited - I have done it before, but I can't really remember much of it, so I'm treating it as learning anew.

What I need is some pointers as to how to do a couple of things. I'm hoping that these are (very) simple, as they seem it in my head, and I'm trying to ask as little as needed to get myself a foothold. I intend to make major advances later but here goes.

I want a plugin to list all files in a directory. I intend to edit this later so it will only list files with specific endings/extensions, and to be a chooseable folder, but for the moment all I need is a hardcoded folder for all files.

The other thing I need is to know how to perform actions when selecting the items. For this I basically want to add the file path & name to a text file. Again seems simple to me, its just how to make the onclick event I need.

If anyone can help me with these I'd bve extremely grateful, and hopefully it will help me get a foothold into creating some kickass plugins.

Cheers guys

look thru the plugin maker script in the scripting svn for a way to list a directories contents. to be able to perform an action when an item is selected, you need to set the url back to the plugin with the needed parameters.

That soyunds like it will help perfectly. cheers nuka1195
