Don, That's where I went wrong. I thought that dirvish-locate produced the file name when it actually produces the directory in which that file is backed up. > Your problem, as I see it, is that you don't seem to understand how > dirvish is laying out the files in the back up folder. Yes. I completely forgot since I've been backing up files with dirvish since last year and haven't had the need to copy one back to the source drive since then. > I would also recommend you install mc (- midnight commander - a powerful > file manager). I played with mc years ago with Red Hat 4.0, when I first migrated to linux. It is a nice ncurses app, but I found it more useful to work just on the command line and that's what I've done for more than a dozen years now. Now I'm back on track.
