Well... I've been managing files on the reader using a SD card and a card-reader hanging off my Mac. A result of this is that I have my books organized in folders by (primary) author, with all of these living inside a folder named 'By Author'.

When I just use the raw FUSE-based filesystem that Scotty wrote, I can copy folders (and their nested contents) smoothly. When I do this with your tool, it doesn't work.

The PRS500 finds the files just fine, and displays them in the usual fashion. I'd sure like to be able to use your nice GUI-based tool to manage my books in a similar fashion. I rather expected to be able to drag-n-drop my 'By Authors' folder and have all its recursive contents copied to the PRS500.
