Toucan 1.1 Pre-Release 1 (Testers Needed)

""

--
As all of ya should know Microsoft is the Evil Empire, and Windows (a.k.a. Winblows or Windoze) is their greatest general, so please make a difference and install Linux or FreeBSD on yer Windows comp.

I'd recommend setting the tabs to Icons and Text by default. Unlike a browser or word processor (where everyone uses it everyday and knows the icons) newer users will have to poke through it a bit to figure it out. And they don't take up much space.

PS - I updated your download link to add ?download to the end. SourceForge doesn't use it anymore, but it acts as a subtle hint to folks tempted to right-click and save that it isn't a direct link to a download.

Works great, no problems at all.

Hey I really like this App, I've been looking for a tool that I can use for securing files. I was wondering if perhaps you can add a progress bar for the encryption and decryption process? I'm not saying I'm an impatient kinda of guy, but well ok yes I am. I used it on a rather large file today, and I thought maybe it locked up so I killed the process. But with a progress bar I might be less inclined to do so. Just a thought.

I like the back up tool. Still trying to figure out the portable variables. Keep up the fantastic work. thanks.

Thanks for this tool! I searched so long for an easy possibility to encrypt my files on the usb drive without being admin. One suggestion I have: Please mark the files that were encrypted - e.g. by adding an postfix like .tc or something. Currently if you have many files you don't even know which one is encrypted and which on not...

On the support page, it keeps saying "Toucan Portable".

Is this just a simple over site when editing an original page, or is their a reason you chose to add Portable?"

Edit: where yy ios the launguage...

I've been playing around with this great little application for a while now. I'm trying to create a kind of automatic backup solution. So far I have a batch script set up when PA starts. Part of this script asks if you want to back up your portable drive.

I've created a job called "wholedrive" (without quotes of course). I've run the job manually by pressing "Go" and it works fine. In the batch file I make the following call:

PortableApps\Toucan\Toucan wholedrive

This runs for about 3 seconds and then stops. It doesn't seem right since I'm backing up a fully loaded 1G flash drive over a network... Then when I check my backup I get 1397KB sized zip files. When I try to open them up using XP's build-in capability, I get "The Compressed (Zipped) folder is invalid or corrupted." (note I set the job to use the Zip format instead of the 7-Zip format so XP could read it natively). The odd thing too is that the Toucan process still seems to be running in the background.

Anyway that is the situation. Is this a bug or am I just doing it all wrong?

As a side note, assuming I can get this to work, is there a way to create a log of everything backed up from the command line. For example, I was thinking you would just append "> log.txt" to the end of the Toucan command.

Thanks.

Booooooo. Worst. App. Ever.
(Kidding, I love the program)
