Hi all, How would I create a list of all the readable FCS files in a given folder? I am using the flowCore/flowViz package but cannot find this information in the HowTo or here: http://rss.acs.unt.edu/Rdoc/library/flowCore/html/00Index.html Was this functionality in rflowcyt or prada? I remember seeing a function that accomplishes this task but don't remember where... Thanks for helping out! Matt

read.flowSet(patt=".fcs") is usually what I use, though you often find FCS files named with things like .B08 and what have you (typically these are from 96 well plates so they'll all be named patt="\.[A-H][0-2][0-9]"). We don't have a specific way of testing the header of all the files (which will all start with FCS regardless of version), though I suppose you could write a function that attempts to read the header information, which is now a separate function.
