Profile Settings - Inclusion Masks
Filename Mask(s)
Specify which files to process. Normally, (all) or * means all files. Alternatively, you can specify filename masks such as *.doc or *.xl?. You can also specify complete file names here, but no folders.
The masks, or the file list to copy, can also be read from a text file. In that case, start the line in the Inclusion Masks edit field with a colon : and type the full path of the text file directly after it.
If the text file contains only subfolder selections, start the line with :+ like this:
:+/Users/Steve/Documents/subfolders.txt
The subfolder text file can contain lines such as:
\folderA
\folderB
Specify Folder Masks...
A separate dialog will come up allowing you to specify folder name masks. For example, you can use this in order to find all folders with the word ARCHIVE in their names and have them processed.
Restrictions...
Rarely used. Allows you to specify separate file masks for one of the two possible copying directions.
Include backup files (*.$?$.*)
When using the setting to keep multiple backup versions of the same file (see More), this software may create backup files such as MyFile.$1$.doc. In order to avoid these files being copied back from the backup location to the main data location, these backup files are normally not included in any synchronization. However, if you want to override this hard-wired exclusion, you can place a checkmark next to this setting.
