Subject:  [VOICENWS] SW: BACK_ME

I have posted BACK_ME on my web site, the URL is at the end of this 
message.   This time I did try the URL to verify that it is valid.

Back_ME is a way to make a quick backup of a file that is often changed.

For example if you are making changes to a REXX script and want to 
make certain that you can go back to a previous version.  BACK_ME will 
allow you to make multiple unique backups of a file.  Each time 
BACK_ME makes a backup of a file, it creates a unique name for the 
backup. It does this by appending a file number to the filename, so 
BACK_ME requires a file system that supports long file names.

If the original file name was CONFIG.SYS, using BACK_ME to make three 
backups  will result in the following files.

CONFIG.SYS.000
CONFIG.SYS.001
CONFIG.SYS.002

The timestamp and EAs of the backup file will be that of the source 
file at the time of the backup.

There is a PM and a command line version of the program

The file back_me.zip may be downloaded using the following link:

http://home.tulsaconnect.com/dwhawk/back_me.zip

Unzip it and execute install.cmd to install BACK_ME.

The install.cmd file does not modify any of the system files, it only 
creates two program objects on the desktop.
