INTRODUCTION

Cute Mirror is an ergonomic tool to compare two directories or directory
trees and assist with file alignment.

A typical utilization of Cute Mirror is when you want to keep a copy of
your data files (which you frequently create or update) in a different
disk (hard or floppy) for backup reasons.

Cute Mirror will compare two directory trees and tell you the differences
in a simple form, allowing you to selectively align files in either
direction, just by clicking on buttons or by dragging and dropping file
names.

Cute Mirror will not perform any automatic change after detecting and
showing the differences between two directory trees. All alignments must
be explicitly requested by the user.

The comparison results are presented as file names distributed over five
result boxes:

1) files existing only in directory 1
2) files existing only in directory 2
3) files existing in both directories, with same size and date (i.e. "aligned")
4) files existing in both directories, with date more recent in directory 1
5) files existing in both directories, with date more recent in directory 2

The user can move files across the 5 boxes (by dragging and dropping) or press
the buttons below the boxes to force alignment of the files contained therein.

Files can be deleted and inspected in terms of length and date/time.

A history panel shows the comparisons performed in previous runs of Cute Mirror,
in the form of a list of directory pairs. The user can repeat a previous
comparison by clicking on the respective line of the history list.

Cute Mirror is easy to use, essential, fast, safe and reliable. It does what is
needed in most cases, nothing more and nothing less. The user interface is
intuitive and self explaining. You don't need to read any help or user manual
to use it.
