we all spend a long time playlisting...IMO
would it possible to set the program up so that it automatically generates a .m3u list of all the files in a directory.
file naming could be just as flexible, eg <artist> - <album>
this is my last big wish for the proggie, thanks!

It is already possible.
Simply record a macro creating any list of your desired format, and then execute this macro from the right-click menu, and you're done!

I would like a feature to create multiple lists with a single operation: separate lists for each recursive folder.
The matter is I often have the following typical task: there is a collection of albums of an artist; I want to create playlists for each album and place them into their respective folders. Now I can only create one big playlist or visit every recursive folder (manually, one by one) and create local lists there. It would be greate to do the job with a single operation.
I guess this could be achieved as follows (for example):
1. As far as can see "Output file" field has to contain the full path now. I suggest you allow filenames w/o path.
2. If name is specified and path is not specified a file is created in a working directory.
3. But if "Include subdirs" checkbox is set seperate files are created for each subdir.

Yes, this option is already on the list for future versions.
