Dear Julia,

Is there a possibility to have xml files in multiple subdirectories? I would like to sort binary files according to date into different directories and write the corresponding metadata next to them in an xml file. Alternative solutions are also appreciated.

I am not 100% sure what you would like to achieve..

* Do you talk about XML documents that are stored in a BaseX database? In that case, BaseX should do all the work. You can store millions of documents in a single database, and the document index will give you quick access to single resources.

* Or would you like to use BaseX to organise your files in real directory structures? In that case, I may need more information on what you have already done so far.

Hope this helps, Christian
