Hello Neil,

It's almost working perfectly. I have one delimma that I can solve
with a script of my own, but, I was wondering if there is a method
using unison, that I have not read about. The issue is mozilla's
bookmarks.html file synchronization.

System A:
~/.mozilla/default/53a4kpfr.slt/bookmarks.html

System B:
~/.mozilla/default/6xnd2dcf.slt/bookmarks.html

Unison copies both dirs/files correctly back and forth
but the different installations of mozilla use different
paths to their bookmarks.html file.

How would you suggest I fix this (merge) or use one
as the master(correct) copy of bookmarks.html and get
the other installation of mozilla to use the copied
over file?



James
