Rsync Interface for Maemo
Grsync, a graphical user interface for the rsync synchronization tool, is now available in version 1.0.0 for Maemo.
The Maemo port has its own presence in the Maemo Garage. On the Linux desktop the program now runs with Gtk versions older than 2.18, for which the developers have now removed a problematic Gtk library call. Grsync also includes a help dialog about the trailing slash on directories and a new -i option to enable importing session data on the command line.
Grsync works in GNOME, but also in other environments where Gtk is available.
Grsync 1.0.0 is under GPLv2. The project page has the source code, packages for numerous Linux distros and additional ports for Windows and Mac OS X.
