Folder Listing
Folder Listing input tasks list the files present in a selected folder and give you the option to
use filename masks, to sort files by name or date, and to list the files present in the selected
folder’s subfolders. The lists it generates are in XML format.
Input
Folder Listing captures nothing, however it does read the input folders (and, if selected,
subfolders) and gathers information about each file in that folder.
