Copy files and backup settings

[khaos]

So guys I have a simple process I make the cut file, copy the cut file to a stick, walk to the shop and copy the cut file to the control computer. I think this is a very common activity for botters. I have about 3 of these sticks I use.

I have always done it this way and I still do it this way. I have been unintentionally bogarting a little utility I created years ago so I would not have to keep getting a larger thumb drive as I get more and more files. If its starts to get too full I delete older cut files to make room. It also insures that you get all of your files. It only copies cut files created/modified 0 - 27 days back!

• The first is to copy to the stick from the design box:
  
  • ShopBotCopyCutFiles.bat
  
  
• Next is copied to the root of the stick to insure we never copy to the wrong place.
  
  • SB.ico
  
  
• Now on the stick we have copy.bat to copy the files from the stick to the cut computer. AND does a backup of our SB settings.
  
  • copy.bat
  
  
• This file excludes files we do not want copied.
  
  • ex.txt

Open these files and set the folders to match your system. You will have to remove the .txt from all but the ex.txt file
