The manual page suggests that it can do most of what I want it to do (although I don't relish rewriting all those regular expressions into globs so that `rsync' can handle them). rsync still doesn't have useful gradations in verbosity, doesn't have a safety feature to limit the scope of deletions, and doesn't deal gracefully with connections being refused or broken and permission errors on either end. (The server is also an incredible memory hog, but I assume you have already crossed that bridge.) In short, I much prefer spegla, despite its clear quirkiness and incomplete documentation. -GAWollman To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hubs" in the body of the message
