OT support request for 7-zip

Submitted by Raubsau on October 19, 2006 - 10:39am

Sry for this, but I can't find any /me -understandable information on the command-line switches for a backup-script I would like t use.

I want to backup everything in the directory "C:\directory" which has more sub-directories.
So I want to recursively backup everything into a .7z archive named with the date in its filename (like "2006-10-19-22-12h.7z"), and additionally backup only changed files into the archive "directory.7z".

It would be very nice if one of you could tell me how to do that!

Greets and thx in advance,
Raubsau

usb snafu- help

Submitted by vamp1r on October 13, 2006 - 7:36pm

I just messed up my sandisk cruzer pretty bad and i'm not sure how to fix it. I was attempting to "shred" the unused space on the flash drive using restoration (http://www.snapfiles.com/get/restoration.html). As this was happening I noticed programs I had running from the drive stopped working and files started to disappear. As soon as this happened I disconnected the drive in an attempt to save anything I could. What I think probably happened: Restoration was made to clean NTFS partitions, and the drive was FAT32. I would format the drive but if I try to open my computer to get to the menu the computer freezes (no matter which computer I try it on).

Anybody have much experience with this browser?

Launches in about a second. Seems to be compatible with most web sites. Has bookmarks you can take with. I guess it is Mozilla/Gecko based.

I noticed it mentioned a few times before in this forum, but more about whether it is portable or not.

I just downloaded a portable version.

Firefox release dates

This seemed off-topic, so I didn't put it in the FxP forum.

I haven't been able to find out planned release dates on the Mozilla site. There's probably a page somewhere, but I can't find it. I'm just curious when they plan to release a final version of Fx 2.0. Smile I know Sep. 19 was the prevoius date, but obviously it didn't work out.

I wants my 2.0!

Request: Someone good with GIMP

I need someone good at GIMP to convert a logo back to an GIMP Source file.
It would be fairly easy (I could do it myself, if I wasn't busy) for that person. Also, if possible they could convert it to an SVG as well (might not be possible).
Is there anyone here that would be able to do that for me (and the lilina project)? If you can offer your services, post a reply, or send me an email at cubegames@gmail.com

Just to say that I was planning on dropping support for most of the modules (e.g. Sync, Backup, Log and Wrap) as most of it has been amalgamated into PUSS. Any reasons that I shouldn't / other comments.
