# Journler Remote Backup

## [Journler Remote Backup](https://stevenjaycohen.com/journal/journler-remote-backup)

    28th Dec 2006   [os x](https://stevenjaycohen.com/tag:os%20x#body-wrapper) [software](https://stevenjaycohen.com/tag:software#body-wrapper)  

In a few different posts, I have sung the praises of [Journler](https://web.archive.org/web/20150811074917/https://journler.com/) the program where I spend most of my creative time on the mac these days. And, you may remember that I contributed some icons to Journeyer as a sort of donation in kind. Well, I just dusted off my bash scripting skills and wrote a simple backup solution for Journler.

Using rsync (which is part of MacOSX), Journler Remote backup (JRB) can make incremental backups of your Journler data to any computer where you have a username and password. Though it should work on WebDav servers ([iDisk](https://www.mac.com/WebObjects/Welcome), [box.net](https://www.box.net), etc.), I have not had a chance to try that out yet. If you use this script, let me know what you think.
