Mirror
                                      
   
   
   
   Mirror was designed to duplicate a directory hierarchy between two
   machines. It avoids copying files unnecessarily by comparing the file
   time-stamps and file sizes before transferring.   Mirror was writen by
   Lee McLoughlin <[1]lmjm@icparc.ic.ac.uk>.
   
   The latest version is Mirror 2.9 which will run on Un*x, Wind*ws 95
   and Wind*ws NT.   Its sole requirement is Perl 4, or better still,
   [2]Perl 5.
