Awesome.

My general feeling is that the english-like syntax *should* be:

   the [detailed] files of folder <folder>

i.e. 'the files' is a property of a pseudo-folder object

Point taken. Thanks - that was me typing without being sufficiently caffeinated. I did indeed mean "of folder <folder>"

However, we don't currently have the parsing infrastructure for that (although I think Ali did some experimental work towards it quite a while ago) - hence why we currently have *just* the function form for files/folders with specified folder.

That's excellent news.
