Toucan: sync, backup and secure, all in one place
Toucan is a custom-built portable app for advanced users
to synchronize, backup and encrypt their data, wherever they are.
Main Features
Toucan is a small utility allowing you to synchronize,
backup and secure your data with more options than the built in suite
utilities. It is split up into seven tabs, allowing you to easily find the
function that you want. This version features:
* Five synchronization modes, Copy, Mirror, Equalize,
Move and Clean. These can be combined with a variety of file checks such as
File Size, Modified Time and a File Header Check to minimize the amount of
copying needed.
* Backup and restore in industry standard Zip, 7-Zip and
GZip files, with support for complete backups, updating existing backups and
differential backups, as well as restoring files from an archive. Automatic
testing of created archives is also supported as is password protection.
* AES-256 encryption using ccrypt.
* A complete command line system allowing you to create
new jobs and run existing ones from the command prompt or a batch file.
* A Rules system that allows you to easily exclude files
based on their name, a regular expression, their modified date or file size.
* An advanced scripting system using the Lua programming
language that allows complex scripts to be created, anything from a backup
script that automatically uploads new backups to a script that synchronizes
your files to a USB drive and then encrypts the sensitive files in case of
loss.
* A large collect of in built Variables for basic
functions such as the date and time or more complex variables that point to the
drives label or documents directory. You can also define your own as short cuts
to paths on your USB drive or your PC.
* Many other features such as support for the new Windows
7 taskbar, full drag and drop support and translations to many languages.
