[RWP] Jim, your scripts for Reaper

[indigo]

Jim, I got it to play sound files as I arrowed across them, both in JFW 
and Wineyes, with the middle arrows and number pad arrows, but  wouldn't 
open folders, and I couldn't insert a sound file into the  project.
As well as reading names of sound files and playing them at the mid 
arrow keys, like you describe, right arrow plays, left arrow stops 
play,both in JFW and Wineyes, I also could easily find the 2 folders I 
made in the Reaper Media folder, but the enter key and mouse left and 
right clicks won't open folders.
Going back and forth from the middle arrow keys and the numPad arrows, 
easily confused this thing so it was reading the name of one sound file, 
while  playing another.
I'll opt out and learn to run Auto Hot Keys, and record macros to 
quickly navigate with plain old windows explorer to this same My 
Documents/Reaper Media, and play the files in Winamp.
Way easier.
Actually, it only takes a second to press the start menu key, down arrow 
once  to avoid search; hit the letter m for my documents; hit enter, hit 
r for reaper, hit enter  media, and I'm there with six key presses.
Click on 1 sound file and Winamp plays it, but if you remain in the list 
of sound file names and click others, Winamp follows along, interrupting 
play and beginning play of any file you arrow to and click on, behaving 
the same as this thing was meant to do.
