OK, a filter task that sets properties for files is
interesting. What actually I thought of, when I first
mentioned, is the possibility to give an regular expression
to filter file content. Eg something like this:

Given a regex [^#] would enter all lines to the new file
that do not start with a '#'. A expressoin r/\.htm[^l]/.html
would replace all occurences of '.htm' with '.html'. This is
a functionality similar to sed in linux.
