I've had success by asking it to generate project directory listings and then prompting it to show me the contents of each file. If the response token limit were removed I could probably compress project generation into a single prompt this way.
Right, something like that is the next step for my automation program. The token limit is something I am really really hoping they will have a workaround for when they put out an API. Assuming they do release an API at some point for ChatGPT.
If there was just an option to say "please continue where you left off seamlessly" that is what I really need. But may not be possible. Anyway I have been trying to avoid getting cut off by always telling it to ensure each source file is 60 lines or less. But the main thing is just breaking everything up into pieces.
Replying with "continue" does basically what you want. The only issue is that it breaks the webpage's formatting when it tries to continue in the middle of a code block. It will produce the rest of the code but it won't be in a code block and some special characters get interpreted as other format codes.
