File Sync Utility Update fron Econ Tech

by , 7:00 AM EST, March 29th, 2002

Econ Technologies has released an update for ChronoSync, bringing it to version 1.0.2. ChronoSync is a back-up file and folder syncing utility designed for connecting several devices to a network. The maintenance update features performance enhancements and bug issues. According to Econ Technologies:

The second maintenance release for ChronoSync™, the automated synchronization tool for Mac® OS X, is now available. This version adds some features along with several bug fixes. ChronoSync is the solution to synchronizing files between folders, hard drives, removable media, laptops, file servers, or any computer.

New features include the ability to create a folder while selecting targets. Naming rules can now be applied to folders or both files and folders, previously they only applied to files. Scheduled synchronizations that are missed because the computer was asleep are now detected. After synchronizing, the "Delete" function allows removal of a file if it exists only on one side of the synchronization tree and removal of both files on each side of the synchronization tree.

Some of the bugs fixes in Version 1.0.2 are:

  • Custom folder icons are now preserved
  • Custom finder labels are now preserved
  • Skips non-files/folders such as pipes, sockets, etc
  • Trial Synchronizations now show correct status symbols

You can find more information about ChronoSync at the Econ Technologies Web site. ChronoSync 1.0.2 is available for US$19.95.
