------------------------------------------------ PlutBack 21-Oct-93 Version 0.1 (c) Peter Deane (3:622/401@FidoNet) Written in GFA-BASIC V3.51 ------------------------------------------------ PlutBack is a VERY simple program which performs a simple backup job for you. It looks for files in a given path (default: "MAIL:") which end in the letters ".CFG". It then creates a backup file (#?.CFG-bak) of each such file. This would be run once a day in a daily maintenance script, I imagine. The program is very simple and has no config file. If you want a config file, then just forget about this program and write an AmigaDOS copy script, and run that every night. This one is for the lazy ones (or the ones who, until now, have been doing this by hand), who simply want a quick and dirty program which will keep a spare copy of .cfg files handy. If you should ever get a new ".cfg" file, it will be backed up without you having to add it to a script anywhere. Usage: PlutBack [directory] If [directory] is missing, "MAIL:" will be used. Otherwise files in the specified directory ending in ".cfg" will be "-bak"ed up. The trailing slash on the specified directory is optional. For more usage details, see the included source file (.LST). The program is freely distributable, but must include all parts if re-distributed. (PlutBack, PlutBack.doc, PlutBack.LST)
