Added Ability to Provide a LIST File to Setup List of Netlist/RTL Files for TDI in L-Edit
The Setup Tanner Digital Implementer > Netlist/RTL page now contains a List File option to setup the list of Netlist/RTL files, rather than entering them individually in the GUI

We parse the content of the file and copy all the files listed in the list file to remote server
Files provided in the list can have varying paths to each file and will still work on remote server
