I've read the online manual and I see that I can invoke FFS from the command line with multiple configurations in a single go, BUT it runs in GUI mode. I'd like to be able to do that in batch mode.
THE BIG PROBLEM is that if I change the settings for a folder pair in the batch config, it does not change the settings for the corresponding folder pair in the GUI config (and vice-versa).
So... I can see several ways to fix my problem, and I'd be happy with any one of them:
a) Allow selection of a single folder pair to be synchronized out of a larger set of folder pairs in a configuration. - The manual suggests this might already be possible, but I can't see how to do it - at least on MacOS
b) Allow a batch config definition that is actually comprised of multiple other batch or GUI configs by reference.
c) Allow command line invocation of multiple configs in batch mode.
