The files that I'm interested in setting this up for are all .CFC files in a
/cfcs/dao folder that's within my source folder....  There are also a few
.XML files that I want to do it for as well...  I don't want to have to do
this individually for each file, though (mostly because they're going to be
changing all the time...) -- I just want to set an option to not overwrite
stuff in the output directory if it's a newer file that's already in
there...

So I'm guessing that there isn't just a simple "don't overwrite" option that
would apply to the entire project?
