I know what       directory I worked on most of the time so I could just do it manually.       Sometimes it might be 2 or 3 directories. I could do all that on a       single compound line ending with a shutdown.              Since any directory worked on would have been worked on today, maybe I       could just list directories under /x that have been written to today?              I'm using ext4 BTW, exclusively, since reiserfs went unmaintained.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
