I like RKBX's ability to recusively insert dirs into the
playlist from and below the dir that the playlist is
created from with the 'Recusively Insert Directories'
function, but the other half of the recusive function is
missing...

What I am referring to is an ability to have RKBX create
playlists right on down the line.

I have my dirs set up 7 levels deep in some parts of my
dir tree, keeping my music well organized, and in fact
coming close to that 20000 music file limit in the
playlists, all in a V2 JBR with an 80Gb drive (can't wait
for the newer/larger capacity 2.5 inch drives due out).
Just got an FM JBR as well and am waiting for the new
drives to become available to upgrade it to.

So the ability to have one key press create and/or
update playlists at every dir level would be great.

When I say playlists at every level, I am talking that a
playlist would be named and placed for the dir level that
it was created for.

The below example is what I am talking about creating
playlists recursively, I will give it in just one dir branch of
my dir tree, but only three of the 6 levels I have ni this
part of my dir tree.

music.m3u plays all recursively root level dir on down
music*

musicbluegrass.m3u plays all recursively in dir
musicbluegrass*

musicbluegrassbands.m3u plays all recursively in dir
musicbluegrassbands*

musicbluegrassinstrumentals.m3u plays all recursively
in dir musicbluegrassinstrumentals*

musicbluegrassladies.m3u plays all recursively in dir
musicbluegrassladies*

musicbluegrassmen.m3u plays all recursively in dir
musicbluegrassmen*


Call the function something like 'Creat Playlists
Recusively'.


Thanks!
