# grsync(1)

GTK+ frontend for rsync

## NAME

GRSYNC - GTK+ frontend for rsync

## SYNOPSIS

**grsync \[-e\] \[-s\] \[session\_name\]**

**grsync -i session\_file\_name**

## DESCRIPTION

**GRSYNC**
 is a graphical interface using GTK2 for the rsync command line program.
 It currently supports the most important rsync features and can be used effectively for local directory synchronization.

## OPTIONS

You can specify a session to load instead of the default one, by typing it as a command line option.
 The "-e" commandline option automatically executes the session and closes grsync when finished, unless an error has been encountered.
 You can have grsync stay open anyway using the "-s" option (even if the session run has been successfull).

The alternative syntax, using the "-i" switch, will open the "import session" dialog on the file you specified as argument.
