Well, I don't know if that's really what he needs it for or not, since he did say a source list -- but yeah, intermediate targets are "source", so you could be right.

If you are, then the easiest approach to that would seem to me to be to modify the Archive actions to take care of it. It gets passed the names of the files it's going to archive, so just stick them in a file, then pass the filename to the archive command. NT and VMS already have distinct actions, just add one for the RS.

Actually, come to think of it, if those machines do, as you say, "need such a file as input", wouldn't this already have been taken care of in those OS-specific actions? I don't work those OS's (thank you, god), so I didn't really look at the actions to see what all was in there.

In any case, I should think that's where it makes sense to do this. (Unless there's some reason it doesn't that I haven't thought of. :)
