Product Description:

Psync allows you to backup either part or all of your hard drive. You can mirror your selected folder to a FireWire drive, a disk image, or a network drive (this feature doesn't seem to be working right now). In addition, psync will create a bootable drive if you mirror your entire harddrive. PsyncX allows you to schedule regular backups as well. (Note: your computer can't be asleep for this to work properly).

This is a gui wrapper around psync. When psyncX runs it crashes but the psync commands continue to run. The result is perfect. So even if it scares you with the crash, it actually works and it works well. Also stop moaning about it being donationware. It works.. be happy about that. Backing up can save your skin. And psyncX can save your skin PERIOD

What just toying around with the source code for PsyncX so I could get it to a Universal binary, but great to see the developer beat me to it, AND make it savvy for 10.2 through 10.4 as well!

If I have only one little quibble, it's the extra authentication necessary when creating backup scripts, and it would be nice to be able to save the configuration to a .plist as well.

Also, it's time you used Steppers instead of those popup buttons to set execution time. The popups are ugly.

OK, so three little quibbles. Nice to see this isn't abandoneware!

Firstly it's not freeware, its donationware as dictated by the nag at launch. Upon starting a backup the application automatically quits.
