When the import key is pressed, a new -directory (the destination directory) under the current directory will be -created and the import path will be searched. If the item in the import -path is a directory (the source directory), the contents of that directory -will be copied to the destination directory. If you would like the source -directory to be that of a removable device, it might be a good idea to use -autofs. See the automount howto at -<A HREF="www.linuxdoc.org">www.linuxdoc.org</A> for info on how to get it working.</P> -<P>If the item in the import path is an executable file, MythGallery will -attempt to execute it with the destination directory as its sole argument. -Be careful when using executable scripts that the script runs unattended -(doesn't need user intervention) and returns properly, otherwise it could -create the appearance of MythGallery hanging (e.g. running -<B>smbclient</B> and prompting for password).
