Synk is a PowerPC native backup/synchronization program that can resolve aliases and archive old files. It is shipped as a FAT binary, suitable for both PowerPC and original Macintoshes.
You can backup a folder full of aliases, making it simple to modify your backup or synchronization strategy by dropping file or folder aliases into the defined folder.
It is just as easy to distribute synchronized files throughout a PowerBook's hard drive by synchronizing two folders containing aliases.
Any number of file types, creators and file endings may be skipped.
Obsolete files and folders can be archived into a folder.
Other features include:
-----------------------
- complete log of actions
- obsolete files can be deleted, trashed or archived
- collisions are conveniently placed in a folder on the Desktop
