SYNOPSIS

   ukopp [ -nogui ] [ -job | -run ] jobfile

DESCRIPTION

   Ukopp is a graphical menu-driven program operating in its own
   window. Ukopp copies the files and directories specified in the
   job file to disk or disk-like media (e.g. USB stick).

OVERVIEW

   Ukopp works incrementally: only files that are not already identical
   on the target media are copied (new and modified files or files newly
   added to the backup job). Files/directories to include or exclude can
   be selected from the file system hierarchy, using a GUI navigator.
   Specifications are saved in a job file which can be re-edited and/or
   executed. Ukopp can be run in batch mode using the -nogui option.
   Ukopp can optionally keep old file versions instead of replacing them
   with updated versions. The retention time and/or the number of old
   versions to keep can be specified for each selected file or directory.
   File owners and permissions are retained even if the copy media has a
   Microsoft file system.
   Summary of functionality:
   - Copy files incrementally with optional file version retention.
   - Three media verification modes: full, incremental, compare.
   - Report disk:backup differences in detail or summary form.
   - Select and restore files from backup media or use drag and drop.
