"There are quite a few programs for backing up files, some with graphical interfaces, some with web interfaces and others which work from the command line. They are mostly designed to do scheduled backups to a server or hard disc but I wanted a straighforward way to make one-off backups of some large files to DVDs or a USB drive. I decided, therefore, to use a simple command line procedure to do most of the work. It takes only two commands to create the archive and three to restore the archive and check it for errors."
