Sharing Files and Folders

In SourceJammer, only files are shared. There is really no such thing as a shared Folder. However, it is possible for all of the files within a folder to be shared. And as a convenience SourceJammer provides a "Share Folder" action to quickly share all of the files in a give folder to another folder.
