Read Text From File

This plugin reads a text file and sends the contents to a text output on the actor, offering options to show a single specific character, line, or paragraph.

Thank you to Benoît Vogel who originally wrote this plugin and contributed it to the Isadora community. It is now maintained by TroikaTronix.

Apple silicon (ARM/M1)

The macOS version of this plugin has been compiled to run natively on both Intel-based and Apple silicon based computers.

v1.1.3 Fixes:

• The file path input now allows for partial path names.
• The ‘read mode’ and ‘start’ inputs now work properly if the text file contains non-ASCII characters.
• No longer crashes if the ‘file path’ input points to a non-existent file.
