i've done the best i could at testing this and i don't think any errors
exist that could destroy data, but better safe than sorry.

the <<delete>> and <<copy>> commands can be very dangerous, especially 
in force mode. i always suggest backing up at least daily.
you've been warned.

Examples: (these didn't make it into the doc.)
These are the options i usually use.

E: is my home work directory
G: is my office work directory

set SYNCDIR=/x*\windebug\*;*.arj;*.bak;*\winrel\*;*\back\*

so...when i get home from the office:

  syncdir g:\work e:\work /a/u/dd/f/v/l\tmp\xfer.log

this will force my machine to be identical with the office.

normally i simply do the reverse before i go back to the office:

  syncdir g:\work e:\work /a/u/dd/f/v/l\tmp\xfer.log

occasionally, if i just want something fast because i can't remember
which changes i made at which location:

  syncdir g:\work e:\work /a/u/b/f/v/l\tmp\xfer.log

this copies the files in both directions and deletes nothing
