G'day Eric

This is what I wanted to do but I cannot understand how to specify the
folder itself. In my earlier example I used

Harris 2007_48 author to chk.odt.2007-12-18T17:00:03-03:00.snapshot.gz

to indicate a single file. If I use

rdiff-backup
'/media/ext3backup/rdiff-backup/rdiff-backup-data/increments/Documents/Oryx/42(1)/Harris
 2007_48 [frmtd]/' '/home/martin/Documents/Oryx/42(1)/Harris 2007_48 [frmtd]'

I receive this response

Fatal Error:
File 
/media/ext3backup/rdiff-backup/rdiff-backup-data/increments/Documents/Oryx/42(1)/Harris
 2007_48 [frmtd] does not look like an increment file.

Try restoring from an increment file (the filenames look like
"foobar.2001-09-01T04:49:04-07:00.diff").

obviously because I am not specifying the folder. I have looked through
the example restores in the documentation but cannot find a suitable
example.

With thanks!

Martin
