Awesome, thanks. I was wondering if Getopt could be useful in this situation. I would have had no idea about those options you used, though. Very nice.

Not a bad thought, but it adds maintenance overhead to your script. This may present portability issues if `rsync` has different options somewhere - or more likely, a newer version of `rsync` adds or deprecates an option.	[reply] [d/l] [select]
