Can FF Internal scripting have access to system level Read/Write

[waykyi]

I am trying to access svg files saved in my Windows system. The thing I am trying to do is to see if any svg files exist in the given path, if it is, then using a loop, I want to import them into assigned glyph spots until all svg files are imported. I could not find that ability in FF internal scripting or am I overlooked? Thanks for any help and direction.

It is best to use a shell(external) script or cmd line input to search for and pass the .../path/to/*.svg file(s) on to fontForge -new
And as I DONT USE WINDOWS it's better to search/ask on reddit, chatGPT or ?
Also Which Windows?

I use Windows 11 and I can solve it by hard-coded the path in the script and svg names in the array. Thanks
