BACKFILE.EXE -- (c)1992 Steve Horrighs Jr.
DESCRIPTION
-----------
BackFile is a quick and dirty little utility I wrote to store
my BBS Logfiles for future use if needed. In short it renames the
specified file to todays date (MM-DD-YY format) with a defined
extention. Then places that file into a Zip Archive that the user
defines.
SETUP
-----
Backfile is fairly simple to set up. At anytime just type
BACKFILE at the command line to get a summary of options. Normal
execution will use the following:
BACKFILE C:\SF\WORK\CALLERS.LOG LOG LOGFILES
