Hi listee,


>If i change my file list to:
>...snip...
>+ 165/165950*
>+ 166/166072*
>- *
>...snap...

This is a common use case.  Read the man page section titled
INCLUDE/EXCLUDE PATTERN RULES and find the part that reads

              + /some/
              + /some/path/
              + /some/path/this-file-is-found
              + /file-also-included
              - *

It should help you understand how to set up the filter rules you need.

The docs discuss a couple of other ways to solve this problem.

Regards,

Steven
