Etersoft Backup Tools intended for resolve typical backup tasks.

The eterpack is a tool for condensing files from a directory tree to one archive file. It uses the great archive tool ZPAQ for create archives.

The goals for eterpack tool:

• reduce the number of files from many thousands to a few
• use deduplication and append only files
• multi part archives (a file or more per every backup session).

The etertimemachine is a tool for backup and/or rotate file tree every time.
