Afio makes cpio-format archives. It deals fairly gracefully with
potential input data corruption. Supports multi-volume archives
during interactive operation. Afio can make compressed archives
that are much safer than compressed tar or cpio archives. Afio is
best used as an `archive engine' in a backup script.

Afio has a tremendous number of options. Some still haven't been
documented! Afio has a new maintainer, and current work has already
begun to create a Perl/GTK2 UI to accomodate scripting, and configuration
of common, or not-so-common batch/task/jobs. Code cleanup is also
in the works. Look for these, and possibly more in version 2.6.

Thanks for trying afio!

probably work in the normal case, but don't expect it to handle a
write/verify error correctly.  If you get such an error, best thing is
to restart afio completely.
