파일 싱크(sync) 프로그램 몇 가지

이제 곧 끝날 어제의 GAOTD(1일 무료 프로그램)으로, 싱크 프로그램이 올라왔더랬습니다.
보기에 괜찮아보이기도 했지만(싱크백 syncback 이란 유명한 프로그램은 상용 버전에 좋은 기능이 많기 떄문에) 딱히 끌리지 않아 무시했는데, 다시 보니 역시나.. 비추가 더 많군요. 저기 사람들 평가는 봐주는 게 없어요. ㅎㅎ

그러면서 댓글에 프리웨어 목록이 주르르 올라왔길래 정리해봅니다.

포터블앱스에서 받는 것.

• Five synchronisation modes, Copy, Mirror, Equalise, Move and Clean. These can be combined with a variety of file checks such as File Size, Modified Time and a File Header Check to minimise the amount of copying needed.
• Backup and restore in industry standard Zip, 7-Zip and GZip files, with support for complete backups, updating existing backups and differential backups, as well as restoring files from an archive. Automatic testing of created archives is also supported as is password protection.
• AES-256 encryption using ccrypt.
• A complete command line system allowing you to create new jobs and run existing ones from the command prompt or a batch file.
• A Rules system that allows you to easily exclude files based on their name, a regular expression, their modified date or file size.
• An advanced scripting system using the Lua programming language that allows complex scripts to be created, anything from a backup script that automatically uploads new backups to a script that synchronizes your files to a USB drive and then encrypts the sensitive files in case of loss.
• A large collect of in built Variables for basic functions such as the date and time or more complex variables that point to the drives label or documents directory. You can also define your own as short cuts to paths on your USB drive or your PC.
• Many other features such as support for the new Windows 7 taskbar, full drag and drop support and translations to many languages.

• Or just synchronize with a removable device (USB key, flash drive, CDRW, Zip) so that you always have your data with you.
• Flexible configuration and customization.
• Supports files of any size.
  

끝으로, Microsoft가 윈도95를 만들 때부터 넣은 기능 중에, 이동식 드라이브(당시는 플로피디스크. 지금은 네트워크 폴더까지)와 컴퓨터 하드디스크 폴더를 싱크해주는 기능이 있었습니다. 서류가방이던가? 이것도 알아두세요. 용도가 단순하다면 굳이 저런 거 필요없습니다.
