This display allows you to select one or more folders from the address book.  You select a folder by checking the box next to its name.  A Server_List command is entered into the script for each check.  Commands created in this manner include the asterisk (*) wildcard, indicating that all servers in the selected folder as well as those in sub-folders will be included in the list.  You must remove the asterisk from the command to limit the load to only those servers contained directly in the specified folder.  The selection above would result in the command:

            :Server_list: Full_List = \Beyond FTP Servers\Local Servers\*  Load

You could limit the load so just the servers in the selected folder by removing the asterisk:

            :Server_list: Full_List = \Beyond FTP Servers\Local Servers\  Load

The keyword World is used to load servers from the root.  It may also appear as the root directory in a fully specified path.  The following command will load every server in your address book:

            :Server_List: All = \World\* Load

You may include multiple load statements for a single list name:

            :Server_list: BFTPClients = \Beyond FTP Servers\  Load
            :Server_list: BFTPClients = \FTP Servers\  Load

All server lists are processed at compile time.  They do not appear in the compiled script itself, but merely provide a shorthand way of writing scripts.  For this reason, the actions that appear in a compiled script are the result of any server list expansions.  Fully dynamic operation is achieved using the Recompile command.
