Solve : Copying selected files?

Answer»

I have Adobe Photoshop on my home desktop.  I WOULD like to copy  files to my laptop on an ongoing basis to have a 'mirror' album on laptop.  I mapped the folder on the desktop to a drive on the laptop.  I would USE the "xcopy" command, but I only want to copy certain files (pictures).  When you EDIT a picture in Photoshop it keeps the original, and appends "_edited" to the original filename.  I only want to copy edited images, plus all originals that were not edited, because if I copied all, Photoshop would show edited and unedited pictures in laptop catalog, when I imported images.  The program I have in my head goes like this "For every file in directory, assign filename(without .jpg extension) as 'x'.  If there exists 'x'_edited, copy 'x'_edited, else copy 'x'."  It does not seem like batch file commands can do this.  Any advice on how to accomplish this elegantly?

THANKS in advance
