Hi, Pierre.

Yes... you'll need to call the script for each channel that you want to clone 
and use the "-c|--src-channel=BLAH" option to tell it which channel.  It uses 
the "ChanMap" config information to match all of the relevant data about that 
channel with the channel you tell it you want to sync... and then does the work.

I hope that clears it up.

Andy
