...erhead information). I managed to save a good 20k by gzipping this data and not making FLAC compress it. Not that much for all the effort. Although I noticed that FLAC didn't do very well with the non-audio data (I didn't expect it to), so I do like the idea of separating this data and gzip/bzip'ing it. I think I can save more data by concentrating on the audio. The sample chunk in a sound font is composed of many samples, all 16 bit word aligned. Each sample can have its own sampling rate. These samples appear one after the other, each with 46 '0' pad samples at the end. I ca...

...that server, so I would appreciate it if you kept the link for yourself. as told previously, I plan to add packages repositories on the nut server (something like packages.networkupstools.org or www.networkupstools.org/packages). So if you want to publish packages, send these to me (preferably a bzip'ed repos.) and I'll add it. For the long run, we'll have to discuss this, once the nut web infra has migrated on the Mango (MGE OPS) servers, possibly with the starting of the web rewrite (see http://test.networkupstools.org/) Arnaud -- Free Software Developer - http://arnaud.quette.f...

I'm kind of reluctant to add a generic compressor. If you wan't, you could come up with a FLAC metadata block to store a gzip'ed chunk and I could ad...

...I would like to do an incremental backup using rsync where all the files at the destination end are compressed (bz2). I'm backing up to a usb flash drive and would like to fit as much as possible on it. I would also like to avoid rsync'ing to another directory on my hard drive, and then bzip'ing that. Done this way only the modified files will need to be copied/bzipped, and if I want to restore a single file it is easy. Any ideas? Thanks. Josh
