Is it possible to list files in storage using a filter or expression? Rather than doing a list -files and dumping the entire storage, I'd like to check that certain files were backed up last time. like so: duplicacy list -files */A-SpecificFolder/*.xlsx
And while I'm asking, is it possible to list only the most recent snapshot without knowing the snapshot/rev number?

Currently it is not supported, but you can pipe the output of duplicacy list -file into grep. See this for example: https://github.com/gilbertchen/duplicacy/issues/125
And there is no way to specify the latest snapshot without specifying the exact revision number.

Ok thanks. And yeah, my first thought was to grep, but what if I'm on windows?
On the latest snapshot question, what I was really thinking is that it would be most helpful to get the latest file listing in the storage, not necessarily a specific revision. (although that is needed, of course, if you want point in time) So I could easily dump the files currently in the backup, which would be helpful to know. If the list -files command dumps all the snapshots/revs and files for all, that's not really helpful to check the current state. Just my thoughts. Thanks again for your help.

findstr should work on windows: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/1416241/is-there-a-pattern-matching-utility-like-grep-in-windows.
Can you file a github issue for the latest revision request? I remember some users on this forum wanted this feature but a github issue would help me not forget this.

Yeah I'd be happy to, I'll add one tomorrow.
