I like how the toucan is going to eat backup. Smile

Bonjour,

Could it be possible that, in case of incremental backup, if no changes have occurred in the folder, no backup file is created ?

I think eventually a msg should inform the user, which may not be that easy in case of command line processing.

Bst rgds from France,
