Neat. Except that I want to copy *only* the stories that I particularly

Syncing

of things that I'm working on at any given time, but not all are ready

go over.
I cron rsync my itunes folder to my wife's computer every 5 minutes.
Overkill? Yes, but when I am ripping CDs it means the files get there
right away and when I'm not, the rsync is completely invisible.
But which version of rsync? My "man rsync" shows a line (in the
options for
what it can copy) saying " Note that in all cases (other than
listing) at
least one of the source and destination paths must be local." Does
local
there include "on the Appletalk network you're connected to"? Because
otherwise, neither of my locations is local.
Yes, it means local as in "may be accessed via a local path" as opposed
to remote which must be accessed via a server:path or
rysnc://server/mount.
You DO need a rsync that understands OS X files though. The
builtin-ships-with-OS-X-version does not, oddly.
