Short: Utility to make daily backup of changed files.
Author: ceppe@geocities.com (Chris De Maeyer)
Uploader: ceppe@geocities.com
Version: 1.4a
Type: disk/bakup
This program can be used to backup changed files. It supports XPK packer
for space saving. Together with 'FMirror' it creates a mirror.
Features:
- CLI program useable in scripts (= QUIET mode)
- simulate backup (= NOCOPY mode)
- backup one directory or include subdirectories (= ALL mode)
- supports pattern matching
- XPK compression support (= PACK mode) (needs XPK distribution)
- changed files only or full backup (= FORCE mode)
- date/time from original file can be preserved (= CLONE mode)
- filenotes are copied (or not with NOCOMMENT)
- window run mode for information (= GUI mode)
- specify configuration file with paths and options (= batch mode)
- GUI available via Argue (arguments gui)
- 'FMirror' program (= maintain a mirror backup) with GUI mode.
- config file (batch mode)
- process time report
Changes to previous versions: MINOR UPDATE
- BEFORE/ASOF keyword to backup between certain dates
- see doc for remark on Async File I/O and BUF options
Requirements:
- no special requirements if you DO NOT utilize pack mode
- needs 'XPK Compression/Decompression' library distribution
if using pack mode.
Should be a standard OS enhancement for all Amiga's by now !
- GUI CLI options via Argue V1.3a.
Major benefits:
- small(ish)
- quick (quickest in CLI mode [use QUIET])
- install script
- MAILWARE
Future:
- progress bar while copying/Xpk'ing.
- do you want DOCS in AmigaGuide ? Then tell me so...
Thanks to all guys (& dolls ???) sending MAIL, you keep the ball
rolling...
