Unison may do what you want. It's like a two-way rsync, ensuring both computers have the most recent version of a file and asking you if it has been changed on both computers since the last sync. Include and exclude filters handle the files you don't want on the laptop. I use it for a similar purpose and it works well. --=20 Neil Bothwick Last yur I kudnt spel modjerater now I are won. --Sig_/LZGQdbl5x74pJC33lo4IhAM Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=signature.asc -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.9 (GNU/Linux) iEYEARECAAYFAkiJg6gACgkQum4al0N1GQPhOACgtTtVhhL2PEoCKPtdrKqIGjJo 4xMAn0nBPYuPFglxAnMmycqHYGRA7S7H =6RZ0 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --Sig_/LZGQdbl5x74pJC33lo4IhAM--
