This block is based on the Upload Tutor relationships block, but instead of linking users together, it links courses together using Metacourse links.
The block accepts CSV files in the following format:
operation, parent_course, child_course
- operation can be add (to link) or del (to unlink)
- parent_course is the ID Number of the meta course
- child_course is the ID Number of the course
After being linked, all users of child_course will be enrolled to parent_course via the metacourse link.
The file can be processed by the block on demand through the block interface itself, or automatically via a cron job. The block's settings allow a location to be configured for the cron file, and processed files can be archived if required.

In the beginning I struggled with the idnumber, thought it's the id of the course, because we never used idnumbers for courses. Maybe you should announce this difference in the description so it's clearer.
Thanks Andrew
