Title: LHA backup
Post by: orange on September 22, 2004, 04:36:29 PM

What's command line for backuping SYS: partition into file backup.lha? (I just wanna be sure not to miss any detail, like date, flags, etc...)

well....

lha -r a [archivename] sys:
should do fine

this creates an .lha in your sys: dir

oh yeah and it probably sets archived attribute with newest date and sh*t, skipping hidden files :pissed:

There are no hidden files on AmigaOS. No magic in there. LhA does not touch the archive bit unless you tell it to. Run LhA without any arguments to get a list of options.
