- Point & Shoot Backup/Restore is a hard disk backup and
- restoration program designed for IBM Personal Computers and
- 100% compatibles. Applied Micro Systems Technology reserves
- the COPYRIGHT to this program and all related materials. The
- user is granted a non-exclusive license to use the program
- and is encouraged to pay for the program if it is found to be
- useful. Payment of the $35 registration fee will entitle the
- user to full registration including printed documentation and
- user support. Government and business entities may not use
- the program without paying the full registration fee. Please
- register your program with the form included at the end of
- the documentation or by using the [Alt-P] command within the
- program to print a registration form. REMEMBER: Shareware is
- not free!
-
- Point & Shoot Backup/Restore is a companion program for the
- Point & Shoot Hard Disk Manager but can also be used as a
- stand-alone product. Point & Shoot Backup/Restore is
- designed to provide fast, easy backup of your hard disk data
- to floppy disks. User involvement is minimized in the backup
- and/or restore process. If you own a hard disk, Point &
- Shoot Backup/Restore is a necessity.
-
- Point & Shoot Backup/Restore currently supports the
- following functions:
-
- o Up to 10 user-defined backup configurations, each of
- which may contain a list of up to 10 subdirectory
- backup sources. Each backup source directory may
- include trailing directories for complete flexibility
- in backup definitions. Backups may be run from the
- command line.
-
- o Each backup definition allows selection of matching
- file specs, modified files only, optional file
- compression, and optional disk formatting during the
- backup process. A graphic directory tree display
- assists in the selection of backup source
- directories.
-
- o Files remain intact (DOS readable) on backup disks
- (except when disk boundaries must be crossed or when
- the files are compressed). Required number of backup
- disks and estimated backup time are automatically
- calculated.
-
- o Restoration options include source drive, restoration
- to other than the original path, prompts for
- duplicate or modified files, and selective file
- restoration. Again, a graphic directory tree assists
- in selection of restoration paths and a combination
- file list/directory tree allow easy selection of
- specific files for restoration.
-
- o Self-contained compression/decompression utility uses
- a file list and directory tree to select files to
- compress and decompress. This feature will be
- expanded in the future to allow multi-file options
- and other features found in similar programs. NOTE:
- We are not attempting to provide yet another
- compression program to cloud the compression war
- issue. Rather, we are providing an option in this
- software to work with compressed files created during
- the backup process using the optional file
- compression. We fully support and encourage the use
- of industry standard compression programs.
-
- o Configuration options include colors, an hourly
- chime, and drive designations.
-
- o Supports 360K and 1.2M 5-1/4", 720K and 1.44M 3-1/2"
- floppy disks.
-
- Point & Shoot Backup/Restore requires the following
- hardware and software to operate correctly:
-
- o IBM or 100% compatible computer with 320K minimum
- memory.
-
- o A hard disk and 1 floppy disk
-
- o MS-DOS version 2.0 or greater
-
- o Color/graphics, monochrome, EGA or VGA display
- adaptor
