The recent discovery of the extentionless file exclusion bug brought 
me back to DPE.DUS. Perhaps you remember?


//My Documents.xcf-------

//Source-----------------

"\\El-Diablo\My Documents\"

//Destination------------

"C:\My Documents\"

//Switches---------------

/BZ //Backs up different size files, including new
/Q //Does not display files that are skipped
/S //Recurse Subdirectories
/Y //No overwrite prompts

//Log File Specifications-

/oN:"C:\My Documents\Scripts\El-Diablo Sync\Sync.log" //New Log File
/oF2 //File list (files that were successfully operated on)
/oD2 //Deleted-file list
/oE2 //Error summary

//Exclusions--------------

/X:Dpe.dus
/X:Thumbs.db
/X:"My Albums\"
/X:"My DVDs\"
/X:"My Music\My Playlists\"
/X:"My Music\My Recordings\"
/X:"My Music\Sample Music.lnk"
/X:"My Pictures\Downloads\"
/X:"My Pictures\Sample Pictures.lnk"
/X:"My Received Files\"
/X:"Private\Donald E. Smith.*"
/X:"Private\ZAP Security Settings.zip"
/X:Scripts\


That DPE.DUS file exists only on the Remote Source. No possible 
version of specifying it's exclusion will actually exclude it? The 
exclusion works fine when the Source is Local and the Destination is 
Remote. OK yesterday I added 2 other files to this case. They are 
specifically: "Donald E. Smith.flp" & "Donald E. Smith.ivb". If
these exclusions are specified by adding /X:*.flp & /X:*.ivb to the 
above Command File they too are ignored just as the DPE.DUS file is. 
However, by adding them as shown above (including their path 
relative to the Source) then the exclusion works as it should. Which 
is at least another inconsistancy, if nothing else.
