Ultimately, I need to be able to write one or more different source files
to each destination file:

  sourceA-01 to destination-01

  sourceB-01 to destination-01


  sourceA-02 to destination-02

  sourceB-02 to destination-02


  sourceA-03 to destination-03

  sourceB-03 to destination-03

This can be done in separate batches for sourceA, sourceB, sourceC, and so
forth.
