Scripting Commands

One of the new features in version 2.0 will be scripting support. Currently I have planned for the following commands but I am always open to suggestions for more.

Sync <job>
Backup <job>
Secure <job>
Delete <filepath>
Move <sourcepath> <destpath>
Copy <sourcepath> <destpath>
Execute <filepath>

Please note that this is not intended to replace batch file scripting, it is merely an easy way for you to tack a number of jobs together is an order, for example to run a Sync Update command before Encrypting.

I wonder what the '' characters signify? Same in the Toucan help for Command Line use.

Do you type them in or not? I think not. But some users will.

What's wrong with, e.g.

Sync job

or Delete filepath

signify that you do not type the actual text between them. I guess that maybe italics would be better, if it is just normal text users will type it out and then nothing will happen (unless they have a job called filepath Wink )
