ES Command line interface filtering for backup purpose.

Post by aman »

Hello,
For differential or incremental backup purpose, I would like to get e.g. a list of all ini files on my c drive that changed since a given date. Besides, the lines in the list should contain the date modified and some more. From there, I could pipe it to GREP or a packing program.
The GUI does what I want. Will I get it from ES CLI someday?
Thanks, Have a nice day, Aman
PS Backup programs do it too, but processing time is generally way to long.

es *.ini dm:today

Code: Select all

C:\WL...........USERS\ff20\compatibility.ini
E:\Pr...........ntel\Intel(R) ME FW Recovery Agent\config_public.ini
C:\DE...........erything.ini
C:\DE...........erythingXP.ini
C:\WL...........USERS\ff20\extensions.ini
E:\Wi...........tch\Layout.ini
E:\Us...........ppData\Roaming\MPUI.ini
E:\Us...........ata\Roaming\MPUI.ini
E:\Us...........ppData\Roaming\Mozilla\SeaMonkey\profiles.ini
E:\Wi...........oxie.ini
And with that list of filenames, you could send such names to another program to get the file dates, massage it & pass it on to your grep ...
