For those of you who make use of David Pilling's SyncDiscs to make
backups, there is now a new version (version 1.20). This new version
has been produced with the full agreement and encouragement from
David.

The most significant change is that SyncDiscs can now be configured to
carry out a synchronisation or compare in full multitasking mode. This
means that, unlike earlier versions, the machine on which it is
running can still be used while a compare or synchronisation process
is completing in the background. This was something that had been
requested on occasions in the past.

For those not aware of SyncDiscs, SyncDiscs is an application to make
the contents of two discs or directories the same. For example, it
may be used for keeping general backups on the same or different
media or machines, to keep an exact copy of a hard disc on a
removable disc, or for synchronising a portable computers disc with
that on a main machine.

The new version can be obtained from:
  http://www.chrisjohnson.plus.com/software/sync.html
or
  http://www.chris-johnson.org.uk/software/sync.html
  
I should emphasise that any comments about, or problems with, this
new version should be addressed to myself and *not* to David.

There will be an announcement in comp.sys.acorn.announce in due
course, but subscribers to this list are getting advance notice and
the chance to try it out first.

I hope you find this new version useful.
