Automating backup of Flash drives
Tuesday, March 6th, 2007I have a lot of my critical work on a few flash drives which I carry around with me constantly, mainly because I work on a number of machines and would like to have a central repository of my work.

Hints and code snippets for a more sane OS X Terminal experience
