Dir Prudence - Version 1.5.7 Dir Prudence is a Win32 utility for comparing drives, folders and files, either on the same computer or across a network. The program can be configured to look for a wide range of differences. Comparison results can be saved automatically in a log file, or as required. Dir Prudence requires very little memory and disk space. It is designed primarily for verifying CD backups of data, but it will compare files and directories on any drive visible to Windows. Dir Prudence supports command line parameters, so it can be run from a Windows shortcut or a batch file with predetermined settings. It can be configured to automatically run a comparison and shut itself down, making it a potentially useful verification tool for unattended scheduled backups. Comprehensive context-sensitive on-line help is included.
