feature wish: batch syncing directories for backups

Post by *eydaimon »

I really like the sync directory feature. What I would really like would be a batch sync feature in order to do backups to my USB drives and what not.

i.e.

d:\somedir -> f:\backup\somedir
c:\someother\dir -> f:\backsup\someother\dir

and then saving the batch description so that it can be recalled and the next backup/sync will also be easy.

You can save the current sync settings/folders by clicking the little folder icon with the star, which is placed in the upper left corner of the sync window.

You can open the saved sync with the internal SYNCOPEN command.

hi thank you for your suggestion. I'm looking to do a backup of atleast five different directories everytime I do a backup.

It's great to quickly be able to leap, but having to select the saved icons and going through them one by one is still tedious and this is where a batch sync would be great to do many directory syncs with one go.

Still, your suggestion will allow me to save time in the meanwhile.

thank you
