   All I use mirdir for is weekly backups of current contents of my local & LAN   
   servers.  There a number of generations & levels of backups (some daily, some   
   weeklies) wrapped up.  So much so that I never saw the value of maintaining a   
   library of logfiles.   
      
   If I really was obsessive, it would take me a week just browsing logfiles to   
   the omission of any other activities.  I don't bother reading them any longer,   
   with the exception of a single disk listing capture file of a single slice of   
   backed-up files that I may refer to up to a dozen times later in the week.  :)   
      
   Cheers,   
   Paul.
