I want to use filelist to generate a "News files" bulletinI think the addition of these two functionalities can be useful:1) Use -hdr with -new XX show the header of another directories that do not have newest files:```Main

In Synchronet v3.19, there will be a JavaScript filelist utility script either in addition to or instead-of the old "filelist" utility. Enhancements such as this will be much easier to make to the JavaScript utility script.

I'd rather see TEXT.DAT re-written in JSON. Or XML. Or EBCDIC. Can we put
this to a vote? :)

The filelist.js -hdr option already works as you have described here.The second request is not feasible (You can't use ARS to define a user). I think another potential solution would be to allow jsexec to "run as" a user number, then just specify the number with the security settings you want.

Yes, run as can be good feature You can run script with differents security context this only lists these libraries that user have access:```jsexec -u ragnarok filelist.js jsexec -u 1 filelist.js```Also, another approcach can be set the ARS for script ex:```jsexec -ars "LEVEL 40" fielist.js```This should show only libraries level 40 has access to.I don't know if it can be useful for other modules, but it can be useful for filelist.jsSaludos!
