As part of my daily update, I have UA kick off a .BAT file that invokes TB -- see screenshot, below.
And, as a part of that, I ZIP up my blocks, suites & systems (BSSes) with a called batch file like the following:
pkzip -add=u -path=full !%yymmdd% "blox\*.*"
pkzip -add=u -path=full !%yymmdd% "data\dictionaries\*.*"
pkzip -add=u -path=full !%yymmdd% "data\forex\US*.*"
pkzip -add=u -path=full !%yymmdd% "simulation suites\*.*"
pkzip -add=u -path=full !%yymmdd% "stock sets\*.*"
pkzip -add=u -path=full !%yymmdd% "systems\*.*"
These can be combined onto 1 cmd line but the separate lines makes it easier to see that I've covered everything.
%yymmdd% is an environment variable set to yy-mm-dd so a new zip file is created daily. this way i have a history of my BSSes.
(I occasionally mangle things so this history is very handy.)
Using "-path=full" preserves the directory structure so i don't have all the files jumbled into one ZIP file.
The ZIP file is about 240K.
