I tried adding :

target.files = myconfigfile.txt

to the lines above.

I expected to see another line in the Run configuration screen under 
local file path and remote directory, and I expected to see the file 
show up on the target device with the executable.  Neither of these 
happened. I see examples in the help docs that show multiple rows in 
this list box (local file path  -  Remote Directory) but I don't see how 
to get them there.


I'm trying to achieve something similar to what I can do from Visual 
Studio when building and deploying a CE project. In this case, I can 
have it replicate the whole folder on the target, including any and all 
configuration files etc.
