I'm workin on a mortscript solution to backing up and restoring app configuration after hard resets or flashing a new ROM.

UC reinstalls the app and there are a few method of applying reg files and copying in saved config files, but nothing that automates the backing up of this info.

I like the way AppToDate manages updating the apps that utilize it... basically a store of XML files that the app enums and parses for its info.

With that in mind, I have made 2 MortScripts that do the backup and restore of app data based on info provided by individual ini files placed in its directory on the storage card.


a sample INI:
g-profile.ini

Quote:

[UCMe2] appname=G-Profile subdir=G-Profile [Files] [regkey] key1=HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\ageye\G-Profile

when run, the mortscript will either regexport the key or copy files as defined in the ini to a subfolder on the storage card. Have a new program that you'd like to backup? create a new INI file and dump in the script folder and the next time you run the script it will process that ini automatically.

I have spent about 3 hours on this so I do not expect it to be perfect, suggestions are certainly welcome. Additional ini files would be useful for the comminity, should people like this app.

This is actually coming along quite well now.

I have a basic GUI for the backup and restore processes and about a dozen apps or configs, each with individual ini files... everything from HWbutton mapping in one to pocketbreeze in another and TFDetacher for another.
