Synchronize from the command line?

[gdallal]

Is there a way to synchronize directories from the DOS command line? I'd like to use TC in place of Briefcase. I often synchronize a bunch of folders at once, so point and click doesn't hold much appeal.

Thanks!

No, sadly it is not possible.
Try Briefcase Plus its very good: http://www.rekenwonder.com/brfcplus.htm

Thanks. I'd looked at it, but it wasn't quite what I was looking for, mainly because I don't want my files compressed. I want to keep them in their native format. At the moment, I use a set of batch files. I create a batch file containing lines like
call updte <folder name>
--one for each folder I want to transport--where updte.bat changes the directory on my hard drive and zip disk to the folder name and runs the pair of commands
xcopy e: c: /d /s
xcopy c: e: /d /s
It assumes the same directory structure on my hard drive and Zip drive (or flash drive). It's clunky, but it works.

Still, I'd be happy to have TC do it for me.

FolderSynch might do what you want.
