yepp, FAM is the thing i mean - wow, you found it very quick. i had build up a tk app for windows saving files in archives automaticly .... if you want i can send to the list, BUT: it is very quick hacked and some tiny parts are unfinished ( preview files ) and still not bug-fixes ( dates shown wrong .. not testet in work-day-solution ) and my fary hadn't write a gelpfile yet. The main-theme was to save files (updates of skripts, documents...) in a full archive for backuping ( on a mirror fs ) and to have a tiny version- trackermaybe someone can use it - and/or make some things better.. hm, is it possible to upload a huge zip to the list, ??? -- or i put it on my web server the next days, if you like.

It even does NFS mounted file systems. It would be nice to have a module that could use either interface transparently depending on your OS.

And then you could create a module that would hide the system dependent differences and provide you with a unified interface.
