The key is that I want to reflect directories that are ancestors of the file being processed.
For example, say that files can be in project/a/b/c or project/d/e/f and I want to generate files in project/new/a/b/c or project/new/d/e/f--I don't see a way to do that without having different scenarios or modifying the scenario for each different starting directory. It precludes applying the transform to the common parent of both input directories and having it just work.
And of course, if I could really have everything I wanted I'd like to be able to apply a regular expression to the incoming filename and then reference groups in order to construct the result filename....
For the most flexibility, let's make ${rppd} the relative path withinproject of ${cdfn}, the current file directory. project/a/b/c would be ${pdu}/${rppd}/${cfn}.whatever project/new/a/b/c would be ${pdu}/new/${rppd}/${cfn}.whateverelse Similarly for project/d/e/f. -- Peter West "For what does it profit a man if he gains the whole world and loses or forfeits himself?"
