rsync

From hard drive to external hard drive (d) for example

rsync -auv /cygdrive/c/apps/projects/ ~/d/projects

Such above commands (one per line) may be saved in a file, say, backup.sh under say ~/scripts folder), and run at prompt ($) as follows:

bash ~/scripts/backup.sh

Cygwin

I moved all my personal tools off the hard drive and on to an SD card recently, for portability. [Cygwin][c], among those, is like a pocket swiss army knife that allows me to use powerful GNU command line tools on Windows. (For tasks ranging from simple things like merging pdf files, search, slice and dice text from across multiple files, managing passwords, to writing and executing calculation scripts.) This is how I set it up:

1. Run .\Downloads\setup-x86.exe --no-admin from Command Prompt.
2. Select Install from Internet.
3. Point the Root Directory to install: E:\cygwin, and choose Just Me.
4. Point the Local Package Directory: E:\cache.
5. Use Internet Explorer Proxy Settings.
6. Select a mirror.
