Yes. There are two ways of accomplishing this: • JAlbum’s Advanced-General tab has an ‘ignore pattern’, which accepts a “regular expression” defining the filenames JAlbum is to skip. By default, BluPlusPlus skips files beginning with ‘.’ (dot, or period), or‘_’ (underscore); it also ignores files with extension ‘mp3’, ‘wav’, ‘wma’, ‘rm’, and ‘mid’. Thus, the easiest way to have a file not processed is to begin the file name with dot or underscore, or have the file have one of the extensions specified above. • JAlbum’s main window allows one to include or exclude individual files and/or folders by right-clicking (ctrl-clicking on a Mac) the image or folder and selecting ‘include’ or ‘exclude’ from the contextual menu. The ‘albumfiles.txt’ should be saved to the top level album input folder.
