I have recently discovered Dropbox as an interesting thing to |
2 |
experiment with, not without its drawbacks, but interesting. |

I have it running on a work Mac laptop and an Android phone, and it is |
5 |
another interesting idea to put it on Linux. However, its downloads |
6 |
are for Fedora and Ubuntu, or a source file which requires Nautilus. |
7 |
Also, I don't want its daemon running constantly, altho that feature |
8 |
is part of what makes it interesting wth the laptop and phone. |

Searches bring up various pages, but nothing really promising, either |
11 |
old or rather convulated or still using Mautilus. One involves a |
12 |
python script which apparently runs the command over and over, each |
13 |
time creating one more fake lib to make up for the Fedora/Ubunto ones |
14 |
required. No thanks ... while an interesting hack, it's not my idea |
15 |
of a way to the future :-) |

So the question is ... does anyone have experience with Dropbox on |
19 |
gentoo? My system is ~amd64, running fvwm when necessary, neither KDE |
20 |
nor Gnome. I'd really like a command line program which I could run |
21 |
for manual syncing. |
