VSS: Specify a list of files at command line
Hi,
I'm using VSS commnad line to get & checkout certain projects
Can I also specify a file containing a list of files to be checked out?

Hmm, the good ole' command processor should do that:
checkout << list_of_files.txt
or
type list_of_files.txt | checkout
checkout << list_of_files.txt
or
type list_of_files.txt | checkout

How would the batch look like?
ss checkout -r
will not read anything from stdin, so the input redirection / pipe doesn't work. (OK, I didn't try, but I'm batch-scripting for a few days now ;o)

What a pity - I do that stuff with CVS/RCS and the scripting with a bash, so I thought it should work...

Ahhh... enlightment comes through pain*
FOR /F %%FILE IN (filelist.txt) DO
Doesn't work on Win 9x, though....
(actually, I found the W2K batch processing quite powerful... so go figure)
* my boss was bickering about "printing all PDF's from one folder - sorted by name" once to much

I used VSS Explorer to cloak certain projects.
When I now do a recursive command using the command line
(e.g. ss checkout $Sources/*rc -r), but the cloaked prjects will be cheked out, too.
Any idea or reason?
