- 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
