║ WHAT THIS PRODUCT CAN DO FOR YOU ║
█══════════════════════════════════█
ZBackup Version 1.31
This program is for people who do not have a tape backup drive and need
an economical and simple way to backup their data. ZBACKUP takes away
all of the hassles of using PKZIP and PKUNZIP and their many options by
giving the user a simple, easy to use interface similar to tape backup
software so that the user may select and deselect files or entire
subdirectories quickly and easily from a complete directory list.
Directory structures are automatically stored like tape backup
software, and it offers the power of PKZIP's disk spanning capability.
It also allows for the option of saving datasets, so if you have a
particular set of files or entire subdirectories that you backup every
time, you won't have to reselect them every time.
ZBACKUP was designed for, and tested with, PKZIP and PKUNZIP versions
2.04 shareware and registered versions. ZBACKUP was originally
designed to handle approximately 1,500 files, however due to the
extreme time it takes PKZIP and PKUNZIP to process more than 100 files
(5 minutes or more, depending upon the processor speed), ZBACKUP
presently has a list file limit of only 100 items. Hopefully, this
limitation will not cause any problems for those who have many specific
individual files that they wish to backup. Entire subdirectories may
be selected in order to circumvent this problem.
Restoring is also simplified by providing the user with a convenient
selectable list of available ZIP files and then a selectable list of
the ZIP file contents.
The ZBACKUP screen is self-explanatory by providing all available
functions and keys at the bottom of the screen at all times. More
detailed help is available in ZBACKUP.HLP which can be displayed from
ZBACKUP using F1 or printed from that display using Alt-P.
ZBSetUp.EXE is also provided for you to customize the colors on your
ZBackup screen. Simply run ZBSetUp and set your desired colors before
you run ZBackup, or you can use ZBSetUp to set colors back to the
defaults we have chosen for you. The only requirement is that ZBackup
and ZBSetUp must be in the same subdirectory and must be called from
that subdirectory or the subdirectory must be in your path.
──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
PKZIP and PKUNZIP are Registered Trademarks of the PKWARE Corporation.
