Hello and greetings. I have some requests that they be useful

1)It will be nice if we had some automation switches.... examples.... exdupe -autofolderssinge (and this compress all visible folders into one single file named myfolders) exdupe -autofoldersmulti (and this compress all visible folders into separarate archives) exdupe -autofiles (and this compress all visible files as one backup named myfiles) exdupe -clasicdir (And this list the contains of backup similar to DOS view) exdupe -flashextract to extract all contains of an archive according to backup name. E.g exdupe -flashextract mybackup.exdupe and this to extract all contains under a folder with name mybackup instantly Some other automations switches....you think they help people to use this superb utility more easily

2)It will be useful a small gui for adding and extracting files more easily

3)Add more compression methods with even better ratio (even slower speed for people wish them)

4)when we view contains of a backup it will be nice a optional pause switch

Ps Sorry for my English.

Thanks for the ideas!

1) I think eXdupe should be kept simple, and such tasks should be scripted. You could use PowerShell on Windows 2) A GUI is on the todo-list :) 3) That's also on the todo-list 4) You can use "more": exdupe -L file.full 2>&1 | more. You can also redirect to a file and open it in notepad: exdupe -L file.full 2> files.txt
