Hi
I use ffs to backup (copy -> ) a large workspace to a backup medium. The workspace contains approx. 20k files. But from day to day only 'a few' files are modified, i.e. required to be copied.
Starting ffs I would like to see only these files and not the whole lot of identical files.
I'm too stupid to find how I could suppress the display of the identical files. Is there someone who could help me?
Thank you

Bottom of the FFS screen, the "dash" next to the "=" sign, will show/hide files that won't be copied.
