Re: show changed files on top

Can you explain how that would differ from what FFS shows now? From my perspective, FFS only detects changed files. What it "shows" are the files it believes are changed and should be mirrored/synched (whatever your actions are specified to be). It seems to list them alphabetically.

Filter rules

I love FFS. Very easy to use. However, I am very frustrated by the filter rules.
