I am pleased to announce the release of KDar-1.2.0.

The "KDE Disk archiver" (KDar) is a disk-based archiving and backup 
utility.
 
 KDar is built around the "disk archive library" by Denis Corbin, and is 
analogous to the tape archiver shell command "tar", but is more suited for 
backups onto disk-based media, such as CD-R, DVD, Jazz, Zip, other 
hard-drives, etc. 
 
 KDar can perform full and differential backups with or without 
compression. Archives can be split to fit various media types.
 
 A filtering mechanism allows you to select which files and directories to 
backup or restore, and which files to compress.
 
 New features added to KDar-1.2.0 include:
 
 - New configuration dialogs
 - creation and restore "profiles" for saving different configurations
 - message window can be printed and cleared
 - fonts are configurable
 - progress bar and current slice and size displayed during creation
 - "Open Recent" archives
 - ability to cancel current archive operation
 - string substitution in archive name (useful for automatic backups
 using new commandline option)
 - Faster and more reliable listing algorithm for the browser
 - Splash screen on startup
 - Handbook brought up-to-date
 
 See http://kdar.sourceforge.net for screenshots, online documentation, 
sourcecode download, and more info.

KDar-1.2.0 sourcecode is available at
http://sourceforge.net/projects/kdar

Enjoy,
JB
