Is there a standard (read easy) way to bring over files and run D2U on each file?
I just found a tool called RSYNC. Do you have experience with that?
Why isn't RCP and FTP included in Cygwin?
A cool new network tool would be a RCP that runs D2U as a option.
Does such a tool exist?
Thanks for your help!
