- ZBACKUP - Zip Backup Utility
-
- PURPOSE: To backup all filespecs specified in the index file,
- C:\ZBACKUP.INX, in PKZIP (by Phil Katz) format to diskette(s) in
- drive A:
-
- SYNTAX: ZBACKUP or ZBACKUP ?
-
- REQUIREMENTS: There is enough disk space in the root directory of C:
- to hold the file ZBACKUP.ZIP. Index file C:\ZBACKUP.INX must be
- present.
-
- RESULTS: The file C:\ZBACKUP.ZIP will be created such that all files
- specified in the file C:\ZBACKUP.INX will be compressed to
- C:\ZBACKUP.ZIP. The The Backup file will include pathnames.
-
- DETAILED USE: BACKUP, VIEWING CONTENTS, AND RESTORE
-
- The file A:\ZBACKUP.INX is a sample ASCII index file; the index file
- can contain any valid DOS filespec including wildcards; it may
- contain filespecs from any valid mixture of PC drives.
-
- TO DISPLAY THIS DOCUMENTATION Issue: ZBACKUP ?
-
- TO DO AN ACTUAL BACKUP OF SELECTED FILES Issue:
- 1) EDIT C:\ZBACKUP.INX and make sure this inclusive list suits
- you.
- 2) ZBACKUP to do actual backup
-
- TO RESTORE Issue:
- 0) RESTORE B: C: /D this should display the BACKUP contents as the
- single
- file ZBACKUP.ZIP
- 1) RESTORE B: C: this puts B:\BACKUP.001, .002, ...back to
- C:\ZBACKUP.ZIP
- 2) MD C:\TEMP
- CD C:\TEMP create a subdirectory to hold restored files.
- PKUNZIP -d -j C:\ZBACKUP.ZIP filespec
- e.g., PKUNZIP -d -j C:\ZBACKUP.ZIP WATFOR77\*.FOR
- will restore what might have been C:\WATFOR77\*.FOR to
- C:\TEMP\WATFOR77\*.FOR in a safe way, prompting to replace any
- filespecs already there.
-
- NOTE: If only one diskette is needed to hold your C:\ZBACKUP.ZIP
- file, then the file A:\BACKUP.001 is in fact a Zip file and may be
- treated as such. I.e., DOS 5.0 Backup doesn't alter C:\ZBACKUP.ZIP;
- so if it fits on one diskette it remains a Zip file under the
- fileid, BACKUP.001. Thus in this case Steps 0 and 1 above could be
- eliminated and at Step 2 issue instead: PKUNZIP -d -j A:\BACKUP.001
- filespec.
-
- TO MAKE A DIRECTORY, ASCII TEXT FILE BACKUP.DIR, OF ALL BACKED UP
- FILES Issue:
-
- 1) RESTORE B: C:
- 2) PKUNZIP -V C:\ZBACKUP.ZIP > C:\BACKUP.DIR
-
- TO ADD/UPDATE files to ZBACKUP.ZIP add them to C:\ZBACKUP.INX and
- (re)issue:
- the command: ZBACKUP
-
- TO GET BRIEF HELP FOR PKZIP ROUTINES Issue:
- a) PKUNZIP or PKUNZIP -h
- b) PKZIP or PKZIP -h
