sitecopy is for easily maintaining remote web sites. The
program will upload files to the server which have changed
locally, and delete files from the server which have been
removed locally, to keep the remote site synchronized with
the local site with a single command.
The OS/2 Port of version 0.4.0 is available now from the
web site at:
http://www.SteffenSiebert.de/ports/sitecopy.html
This version brings:
* Much improved FTP code - now, broken connections should
be reconnected on-the-fly. FTP uploads will be slightly
faster, too.
* Signal handling - if you kill sitecopy during a site
update, the progress is saved.
* 'Flat listing' mode: -ll gives an easily-parseable
listing of changes to a site. An example AWK script to
produce a 'Recent Changes'-type HTML page is supplied,
changes.awk
* Do-to-all-sites option: -a on all the command line.
* Misc: improved debugging, FTP non-pasv mode option is
really selectable from the rcfile this time, man page has
content, errors in rcfile reported, update mode is
paranoid.
Experimental new features which probably won't work at all
for you:
* 'fetch' mode - to update what sitecopy thinks is on the
remote site using what is actually on the remote site.
(FTP only)
* 'synchronize' mode - to update the LOCAL site from the
REMOTE site. sitecopy's reverse gear... use with care.
(FTP only)
Check the man page or README file for more information on
new and old features.
