I tested the tool on Windows, but unfortunately you can't see the full progress.
I used the Windows PortableApps version and faced a few glitches that had to be worked around by "blacklisting" files or even manually deleting files before having Synkron "analyse" the source and destination. Then the app became painfully slow, displaying a "Not Responding" in the window title bar many times in a row. Found that users have been reporting the bug, and diagnosing its likely cause, since 2013 with no action. Synkron is abandonware. It still works, sort of. But that's all that can be said for it.
Initially I thought this was a great program, being similar to Syncback but on the Mac. Joy was shortlived. Trying to sync large amounts of data caused it to die. Shame that Syncback SE doesn't have a Mac version as that is the biggest program I miss moving to a Mac.
Yeah, this one looks good, has some features I'd find useful, but it doesn't check it's work, and that's a deal-breaker. No checksummy, no instally. DirSync Pro is still the winner in my book, but not by much.
Disappointing theres no choice but DirSync Pro & TeraCopy for integrity checking sync/copy tools.
I can't build it (install) on Fedora 11 (x86_64)... Building with squirrelsh "say" missing libpcre.so.3. I followed some hint found on google....
... I don't know how to get further! :-(
