This allows rsync interfaces to non-filesystem data 1.13 +types (eg: databases) to be developed with relative ease. 1.14 + 1.15 +File::RsyncP was initially written to provide an Rsync interface for 1.16 +BackupPC, http://backuppc.sourceforge.net. 1.17 +See BackupPC for programming examples. 1.18 + 1.19 +File::RsyncP does not yet provide a command-line interface that 1.20 +mimics native Rsync. 1.21 +Instead it provides an API that makes it possible to write simple 1.22 +scripts that talk to rsync or rsyncd. 1.23 + 1.24 +The File::RsyncP::FileIO module contains the default file system 1.25 +access functions. File::RsyncP::FileIO may be subclassed or replaced 1.26 +by a custom module to provide access to non-filesystem data types.
