Horodruin

Frequently I am in need to update a folder taking files from many different folders (and finally updating them too).
I looked on the web but I didn’t find anything that could easily do this dirty work.  So I wrote this small program.

It is a file synchronizer with unique features like handling more than 2 folders with just a few clicks.  It’s very simple, but I strongly recommend reading the included documentation.

It has the following key features:

  • multiple folder handling (2 or more).
  • the folder analysis can be tuned to your needs.
  • the ability to save and load your settings in project files.
  • the ability to save in a separate folder the source changes (Export Delta).
  • multi-threaded.
  • optimal file multi-threaded copy engine (by using temporary files and/or by overwriting files).
  • configurable.  You can easily integrate it with a text editor, a hex editor, and a diff viewer.
  • minimal registry usage (only for Explorer integration).
  • small, fast, and clean.
  • HTML Help included.
  • for advanced users only!!!
