23 \fBshbackup\fR is a simple backup solution
24 which packs user-defined file sets with tar. Each
25 backup belongs to an epoch, which can be year, month,
26 week, day, hour or sporadic. The backup can be made
27 either full, differential or incremental.
28 \fBshbackup\fR takes care for pruning old
29 backups. The user defines for each epoch the number of
30 backups to keep, except for 'sporadic'. Sporadic
31 backups need to be removed manually.

52 Do not determine epoch automatically, but
53 use EPOCH, which can be year, month,

57 Instead of configured mode use MODE,
58 which can be full, diff or incr.
