It's not on Solaris 10, either, though there's a Blastwave package for it. I looked on CPAN for a pure Perl version, but all I could find were command line wrappers. On the Python front I did come across this: http://www.vdesmedt.com/~vds2212/rsync.html I don't know Python very well, however, so if there's an ex-pythonista out there who's willing to give porting that a shot, it could prove to be very handy. :) Regards, Dan _______________________________________________ Rubygems-developers mailing list [email protected] http://rubyforge.org/mailman/listinfo/rubygems-developers
