Snapshot of your working directory

We need two open source programs: Gzip is a compression utility with a high compression rate and free from patented algorithms. GnuPG is a complete and free encryption solution to protect confidential communication and digitally stored information. Create a /backup directory in each of your working directories.

backup.cmd

1: 2: 3: 4: 5: 6: 7: 8: 9: 10: 11: 12: 13: 14: 15: 16: 18: @echo off rem where the zip file resides set p=d:\programme\system\ rem where GnuPG resides set g=c:\Programme\GnuPG\ rem compress files set z=%date:~6,4%%date:~3,2%%date:~0,2%.zip %p%zip %cd%\backup\%z% %cd%\*.* rem sign backup %g%gpg -b -armor %cd%\backup\%z% pause exit

Write the above code in a file, put it somewhere in your path and assign an icon (I am running this from the buttonbar of TotalCommander (R)). One click – and your current directory is being saved as zip file and signed with your key.
