Hi Donald,

You need a % character (In the prototype I skipped it because - in the back
of mind - I thought it was understood, sorry):

read %/drive/folder/folder/

Example:
>> read /d/temp/
** Script Error: read expected source argument of type: file url object block.
** Where: read /d /temp /

Compare to:

>> read %/d/temp/
== [%save_NewFrames/ %funky/ %tcl-v7/ %snapshots/ %lynx_w32_2_8_2rel_1.zip...

Hope this helps,
