That's what I want to do. I'd expected there to be a version of "copy" which could work in this way, but I couldn't see how to do it; Tony's example has pointed me at it.

Appreciatively,

There is no reason why you should not be able to generate the list of
image filenames in a special target and use this filename later on in
another target as value for the includesfile attribute.

Tony Graham's solution is the same as mine, but probably easier to
understand because of the example code.
