An awesome piece of work. I have but two wishes, saving one for later :) 1) a log 2) an option that says in effect overwrite all the files I did not modify. My reasons for wanting (2) are I was updating a 4.1 system I had just installed from the CD to 4.2-BETA and nothing really had changed, certainly not the periodic scripts and defaults. I have not looked at this enough to have an opinion on how to determine/tag "unmodified" files. Editing something in the file would be fine with me. The log would serve to address an "oop's.
