GRSYNC(1)

✨ GRSYNC ✨

okay bestie, buckle up πŸ’– this is the manual page for GRSYNC, section 1 of the manual, and it's literally the rsync frontend you've been looking for.


🌸 NAME 🌸

GRSYNC β€” a GTK+ frontend for rsync πŸ’…


πŸ¦‹ SYNOPSIS πŸ¦‹

grsync [-e] [-s] [session_name]

grsync -i session_file_name

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

So here's the vibe: GRSYNC is a graphical interface that uses GTK2 to wrap around the rsync command line program 🫢. It currently supports the most important rsync features, and ngl it can be used effectively for local directory synchronization. That's the whole point. She's serving GUI, she's serving sync, she's iconic πŸ‘‘


πŸ’… OPTIONS πŸ’…

You can specify a session to load instead of the default one, just by typing it as a command line option. Simple as that πŸ’–

  • -e β€” automatically executes the session and closes grsync when it's finished, unless an error has been encountered 😭. You can make grsync stay open anyway by using the -s option (even if the session run has been successful ✨).
  • -s β€” keeps grsync open even if the session run was successful. No early exit, we're staying for the whole thing πŸŽ€
  • -i β€” the alternative syntax, using the -i switch, will open the "import session" dialog on the file you specified as the argument 🧚
lowkey important: the -e closes-on-finish behaviour has that one exception β€” if an error shows up, she stays put. That's not a bug, that's a feature fr fr πŸ’€
