Bug Description

Is there a good way to make a backup of the filelist in the client? Good to have if a hdd crashes.

The way i'm doing it now is making a backup of AirDC++/Settings/files*.bz2 every day.

I'm seeing a problem that it not updates so often.
I think it updates every time some downloads the full filelist and it becoming less common now.

Can it be a good thing to make it auto update everyday if it has changed or something similar?

Or can it be done in some other way?

What comes to your question, there's a hidden command "/generatelist" (only works for the default profile)

ok thanks yes i think default profile is enough.

But i think you shall show that command more. It's not even showing in /help.

Why not have a rightclick for it? Backup your own filelist to xxx and maybe save it in a format that client can read direct.
standardnick.date.time.cid or something?

But best is if you can get some automation because things you do manual tend to be longer and longer between times you do it.
yep probably it should be best as a plugin but maybe that is not a option for a while.
