I wrote a trivial backup script that does the following: If tonight is the first day of the month:
save last month's archive do a full backup of the system else: save last night's differential backup back up all changes relative to the current month's full backup endif I wrote this in bash and although it's worked w/o a glitch for the last couple of months .. I'm not comfortable with .. "the look & feel of it". I am thinking of rewriting it in python using OOP tactics/strategy. Please advise. Thanks!
