I usually rely on the date/time checking features of the sync software I use, since editing like this updates the modification time for the files. I use an old .exe version of FileProcessor by Paul Lutus (newer versions are Java) to do this. It can do a full binary compare if that option is selected, as well as pruning of deleted files, etc. Simple, but very effective. _______________________________________________ http://cool.haxx.se/mailman/listinfo/rockbox Received on 2004-02-15 Page template was last modified "Tue Sep 7 00:00:02 2021" The Rockbox Crew -- Privacy Policy |
