A nice workaround to this backslashing problem is to place your filter statements into a file - say /home/user/rsync_filters - and add a corresponding statement to your arguments: --filter=.\ /home/user/.usync/filters
If you later want to add additional filter statements to your command-line, your command line will probably blow up even if you become a backslash acrobat, a filter file makes things much easier ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.net email is sponsored by: SourcForge Community SourceForge wants to tell your story. http://p.sf.net/sfu/sf-spreadtheword _______________________________________________ BackupPC-users mailing list BackupPC-users@lists.sourceforge.net List: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/backuppc-users Wiki: http://backuppc.wiki.sourceforge.net Project: http://backuppc.sourceforge.net/
