[ANNOUNCE] j4copy v0.8 (Java for Copy)
| Stéphane Königsdörfer 24 Mar 2005 08:09 GMT | Page rating:  |
I am pleased to announce the release of j4copy v0.8. This is a major=20
release.
j4copy is basically an open-source tool to copy files from one location=20
to another, with currently three modes: simple copy, ZIP archive, and=20
synchronization. It also features cycling backup for previous versions=20
of overwritten files.
It was designed to be simple, in order to be reliable and hopefully=20
without bugs.
j4copy comes with a CLI application, a GUI application and a Java API.
Typical uses of j4copy are (on any platform supporting Sun JVM 1.4+):
- backup files to another (usually network) drive
- archive files to ZIP file
- synchronize files between laptop and network drive
Its main advantage over other dedicated copy tools is portability, since=20
it is fully based on Java.
I wrote this tool because I was fed-up playing with little scripts=20
(.bat, .sh, ...) to do some poorly-featured backups or synchronizations.
j4copy is free for personal and non-commercial use. The downloadable=20
version has no time or feature restriction, and no ads or spyware.
