Only copy files that are listed in a csv file.

I often deal with directories from which only specific files need to be copied. It would really help me in my use case when I could add files from a directory to the file list based on a csv-file with filenames.

If your csv file contains a single column with a file path, you can simply use this command:


TeraCopy.exe Copy "*C:\filelist.csv" "D:\Documents"

Hi Code Sector, is this a working command in latest release (v3.8.2) or under review to be included in future release?

If Yes, where can i the info to understand more on how it works and if it works for TeraCopy.exe Move as well.

Hi Code Sector,

The command is to copy ALL files within the filepath specified in the CSV file.   Tested and it's working as expected.  

I misunderstood the command line, which I thought it support explicit filepath + filename.  I supposed this is currently "Under Review".  Hope this will be an added feature soon. 

Thanks.
