Maybe I was not clear, sorry. I meant: I have already a few years
backups, and afraid of spending too much time to (1) change the
script and especially (2) revert all previous backups to the new format.
I never said these systems were not good, they are surely *very good* :-)
 

It seems you're equally interested in digressions since
you're purposely going backwards in the discussion!  :-)

I'm certainly not going to hand-hold you through the
decision-making process.  If you must know, I previously
used an rsnapshot-like system, then unison, then rsnapshot.
 Now I use the latter two.

I said I would try when I have time, I believe the proposed solutions were
very interesting. I will have a look, but later...

Whether or not you feel the need to give up on "grep" and

give a new method to try is of course your decision.

But, I should remind you that you posted the original
question.  So you must have been looking for alternatives to
your current situation...

Of course. I did not want to so far with my question :-)

So, you've never been to a TLUG meeting before, obviously?

Yes, I did. But long ago, unfortunately :-)
 

:-)  No, they are not private.
Perhaps you should re-read what Edward said to you on Friday.

I did read it, of course... The term "private" was surely not appropriate.
"Unpublished"  could be a better word? My question was about translating
material (but surely not meeting or nomikai information :-). I wondered
if *technical* docs were available for a possible translation.

Best Regards,

Bruno.
