One important question:  Is the comma-separated list a fixed list
(i.e.
it never changes)?  Or is it regenerated by each build?

I believe this is the easiest solution if the list doesn't change.
The includesFile
is just a file containing one filename or pattern on a line.
Obviously, if a string
doesn't contain any pattern characters, it only matches exact
matches - i.e.,
it would be the file name.

However, I wouldn't use NAnt to generate the file from the comma
separated
list.  Just go into your favorite editor and use a keyboard macro.
Python or
Perl are obvious alternatives for this type of transformation if you
know them.

If the list is generated on the fly, then use your original approach
to parsing
it.  You can use the <echo> task to write lines to a file, with the
file="..."
parameter.  Just remember to use append="true" correctly; either
delete
the file before starting, or special case the first write.
