✨ KBACKUP(1) ✨

okay bestie, this is the manual page for kbackup, part of the KBackup User's Manual — and yes, it's literally the cutest way to back up your files, no cap 💖

🎀 NAME 🎀

kbackup — backup program with an easy-to-use interface ✨

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

kbackup [OPTIONS...] [Module name | Module set name...]

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

So kbackup is a program that lets you back up any directories or files, periodt. It uses a super easy to use directory tree to select the things you wanna back up, and it lets you save your settings in "profile" files. Those profile files are just simple textfiles containing definitions for directories and files to be included or excluded from the backup process. iconic behavior honestly 👑

💅 OPTIONS 💅

  • -v, --version — displays version information. like, who are you, what version 💁
  • -h, --help — displays help on commandline options.
  • --help-all — displays help including Qt specific options. the full lore drop fr fr
  • --help-all --qmljsdebugger value — activates the QML/JS debugger with a specified port. the value must be of format port:1234[,block]. block makes the application wait for a connection. (iykyk 🐛)
  • --script file — script to run after finishing one archive slice. get your little after-party script in there 🎉
  • --auto profile — automatically run the backup with the given profile and terminate when done. set it and forget it bestie ✨
  • --autobg profile — automatically run the backup with the given profile in the background (without showing a window) and terminate when done. stealth mode, main character energy in the shadows 🥷
  • --verbose profile — in autobg mode be verbose and print every single filename during backup. it's giving *over*sharing but we love that 💬
  • --forceFull — in auto/autobg mode force the backup to be a full backup instead of acting on the profile settings. going all in, no half measures 🔥
  • --author — show author information.
  • --license — show license information. 📜
  • --desktopfile file — the base file name of the desktop entry for this application.
