------------------

Usage
-----
1. Choose left and right directories and "Compare" them.

Key Features
------------
1. Compare files (bytewise or by date) and synchronize them.
2. No limitations: An arbitrary number of files can be synchronized.
3. Unicode support.
4. Network support.
5. Lean & easy accessible UI: Highly optimized for speed and huge sets of data.
6. Algorithms coded in C++ completely.
7. Progress indicators are updated only every 100ms for optimal performance!
8. Subfolders are also synchronized, including empty folders.
9. Support for multiple folder pairs
10. Focus on usability:
	- Only necessary functionality on UI: no overloaded menus or icon jungle.
	- Select folders via drag & drop.
	- Last configuration and screen settings are saved automatically.
	- Maintain and load different configurations by drag&drop, load-button or commandline.
	- Double-click to show file in explorer. (Windows only)

	- Delete superfluous/temporary files directly on main grid.
	- Right-click context menu.
	- Status information and error reporting
	- Sort file-lists by name, size or date.

11. Easy configurable commandline mode for automated synchronization.
12. Support for filesizes > 4 GB.
13. Option to move files to Recycle Bin instead of deleting/overwriting them.
14. Automatically ignore directories "\RECYCLER" and "\System Volume Information" when comparing and sync'ing. (Windows only)
15. Localized English, German, French and Japanese versions available.
16. Delete before copy: Avoid disc space shortages with large sync-operations.
17. Based on wxWidgets framework => Portable to many operating systems.
18. Filter functionality to include/exclude files from synchronization (without re-compare!).
19. Include/exclude specific files from synchronization manually.
20. Create sync jobs via GUI to synchronize automatically (can be scheduled or executed directly).
