So I have another directive question. Some may remember my last question - 
about using 2 client defintiions; 1 using a directive that listed savesets 
explicitly, and another client definition that was a "catch all", that 
caught savesets not specified in the first client definition. That 
directive turned out to look like:

<< "H:\clarity" >>
        +skip: .
<< "H:\crm_implementation" >>
        +skip: .

It did not work to have <

<< "H:\" >>
        +skip: clarity crm_implentation

I use a FULL of Fri, Level 1 on weekdays schedule. And the 2nd method 
above tried to do a FULL on everything, for some reason. But its not that 
big a deal to list the directive like that, as it is a one time set up of 
that directive. But here's my new question:

On the 1st client mentioned above, I list specific savesets 

H:\clarity
H:\crm_implementation
H:\Users
etc

What I need to do is to set a (hopefully global) directive to skip 
specific filetypes in one of those listed savesets. Specifcally, one of 
the listed savesets is the user's home folders, and I want to skip any MP3 
files (don't ask why they have them at all, that's another old problem 
we're clearing up). So what I need is a directive that looks like this:

<< "H:\users" >>
+skip: *.mp3 *.MP3

I've never used a directive that said to skip specific filetypes, while 
also asking for a specific saveset (I've skipped filetypes before, but 
only with a saveset of ALL, or a whole drive H:, for example). I do *not* 
want to skip MP3s in other folders, however. We make training videos and 
audios, and I want those MP3s. But they should be in departmental shares, 
and not in the user share.

Has anyone done this?
