Hello,
we did some research and we would like to try to write a Tcl/Tk wrapper
around rsync.
Tcl/Tk -
- is easy to write
- has nice GUI library
- is cross platform
- has several installers
Would somebody be interested to participate?
Our goal is -
To have a small Windows XP and OS X backup applications that allow the
user to select a folder which is sent to a remote server.
Incremental difference is kept (or other, optional).
A file browser allows the user to see the backup and restore
everything/selected files.
We have not researched enough into the security yet. We hope Tcl/Tk will
support some form of encrypted connection (i.e. rsync over ssh for
backup and ssh for the file browser). The security of the stored data is
not clear yet (if it is encrypted, it can't be rsync-ed, etc.).
Our idea is to make a small package which allows reliable remote backup
services to be built.
