[KLUG Members] calling functions from the shell

[bill]

I intended to put it in a script.  I'll probably throw in a fourth variable for
the password.

So, I'd include this file at the top of the script and then do:

CopyWinHost one two three four
CopyWinHost five six seven eight
etc., etc.

When that works, do a similar one for the Linux boxes.

I'm wondering if it's possible also to exclude the swap dir, changing

$WINCMD \\\\$REMOTE\\$SHARE 12345 -Tc -|gzip > $DEST

to

$WINCMD \\\\$REMOTE\\$SHARE 12345 -Tc -|gzip > $DEST -X *.swp

thanks,

bill
