Well, I first used eix backup. My thinking was this, if one searches |
63 |
first for something with "backup" in it, they should notice a lot of |
64 |
apps in the app-backup category even tho they might not know it existed |
65 |
before that. At that point, pot of gold with this: |
66 |
|
67 |
eix app-backup/* |
68 |
|
69 |
Thing is, he may not have eix installed. :/ |

Either way works tho. :-D |

Me, I just use rsync and call it a day. |
