Well, these aren't Java files, but the requirement is the same. I may not have specified it clearly enough, but what I want is what to preserve the structure below the directories to copy, which is the way the following UNIX utilities do it: * wget --cut-dirs=2 * tar --strip-components=2 * cd/find/cpio achieves the same thing -- Michael Ludwig --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: user-unsubscr...@ant.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: user-h...@ant.apache.org
