Re: Adding Recursive directory Sync'ing
Well, yeah, more or less. Lemme use this for example-
I have my music collection. I might buy a new album or 2 or 3 for an artist i already have a subfolder for. Currently, i can only sync the artist folders within the music folder, FlashFXP isn't capable of being able to sync any subfolders within that main directory. So sometimes i want to sync that folder, but may not remember which new albums i bought and added for a certain artist(subfolder), the only way i can include those is without having to remember each new artist CD within that directory, is having a sync option that when clicked, would automatically copy each hightlighted folder over from the right side window to the left side window, and using a "Skip file if exists" type of condition 'Sync' option. Maybe added as a submenu item when right clicking after selecting the folders on the one side.
SO that would allow more flexibility of Sync mode. Even further, adding function control in the Options menu, that would allow a user to set up how he wants that 'Sync' to function. Like similar ways to sync files now. "If file exists/skip." or "If file exists/skip unless if file is Bigger/Smaller then file-overwrite file." something along those lines.
I really believe alot of people would like this kind of functionality. Currently, sync mode is just too basic, and if its only syncing files within a directory, a user can very easily already look and do this manually very quickly. So something to be able to inclue subdirectories in some form of control is really desired and needed in future releases.
Thanks SO much if this could be added. I already love your program, and spread the word, but this is a very usefull function to add, specially when sync capabilities are already advertised. Just basic functions exists currently.
