In this episode we will look at the grandmaster of synchronisation : Rsync, and we will play with PenguinTV and Java Risk
I. system tools : Rsync
rsync is a file transfer program for Unix systems. rsync uses the “rsync algorithm” which provides a very fast method for bringing remote files into sync. It does this by sending just the differences in the files across the link, without requiring that both sets of files are present at one of the ends of the link beforehand. samba.anu.edu.au
and the Microsoft Windows Spinoffs :
Nas Backup
Delta Copy
II. internet tools : PengiunTV
PenguinTV is not just another RSS feed reader. It is designed from the ground up to work seamlessly with podcasts and video blogs, allowing you to easily enjoy the audio, music, and video published around the web in RSS format. One user calls it “hands down the app of choice” for downloading video blogs. penguintv.sourceforge.net
III. the little extra : Java Risk
JavaRisk v2 is a strategic game roughly based on the board game Risk. The game features network support for multiplayer games, hot-seat sessions for playing with friends on one PC & a challenging Ai. There´s also an implementation of the original Risk jrisk.sourceforge.net
