If both differ a message +will be written to the standard output. + +To improve performance, ck4up is multi-threaded. Regular expressions +can be applied to each page in the event that ck4up produces +repetitive diff messages. For example, if daily snapshots and a web +counter are on the same page. To simplify maintenance of the +configuration file, a kind of macro-expansion can be used. |
