i've passed through hell and was about to give up after 7h trying to do this and then i found your video, i love you man <3

[radpeak]

i am not even a beginner on coding yet understand how it works so i wanted to get in by solving my repetetive task as a dj and producer so after some research i got the questions that i need to ask so i ended up with your brilliant video, i learn by examples specially if examples are related to me. i will try to do what i need to do but i will leave it here incase you or someone help me out.
i have 2 programs that i need to use to get ready my dj gig,
mixed in key (mik) and rekordbox(recb)
i download songs and run them with mik and take the files and run them with recb and take the files and sort them in my usb stick to use it in dj gear.
so i want my script to run itself whenever i get new mp3 file on my folder and apply the steps i mentioned.
once again ! thanks a lot

This is epic and thank you man! I'm wondering though, can this be modified/used to iterate through a folder and open multiple files in succession within the same folder? As in setting a filePath of "C:\...\*.txt" and have it open all the files 1 at a time? Trying to figure that out now and having a hell of a time.

Hi Phil!! Just found your videos, you earned yourself some likes and a sub! A quick question I have though:

I am trying to open a .jar file through Python, and I've got it so that it opens the .jar program, but I can't seem to actually open the file within it. Once running the code, I get a PermissionError from the .jar file. Any ideas on how I can get to fix it?

I just started learning about programming about a week ago, so I'm still new at things. So please be patient if I don't get something right or if you need me to elaborate on something!

Thank you again mate! :D
