Huh, just what I feared. I wonder why is it set up that way? Can't imagine
anyone would want that. :/ Well, seems I will need to parse the list file and add @12345 to each line.
Grunt, grunt...

Thanks for clearing this up.

p4 sync @12345 p4 diff -sd @12345 > deleted.txt p4 -x deleted.txt sync -f @12345

But I am not sure if the syntax will really get me what I want. Will the -x option cooperate with the changelist number correctly in the second sync command? Can anyone more proficient with the p4 command confirm (or deny) correctness of the syntax?

We recently went through a similar use of '-x' -- basically, p4 will look at the files like this:

<deleted.txt line 1> <deleted.txt line 2> <deleted.txt line ...> @12345

So deleted.txt needs the '@12345' revspecs on each of the files.
