Just for comparing software, Rsync (secure and/or public mirroring 
of hard-disks and data remotely) does from memory have the option
of creating backup files so you do not lose anything.  A possible
feature for WGET as well?
            http://rsync.samba.org

----

Though while plugging away again for features - the deleting of
obsolete files on the local host (FTP should not be all that 
hard but HTTP could be more trickier) - how is this getting along?
Did someone release a patch in this regard - or was this for
something else.

Lachlan.
