This script is built to backup your project files.

To use it, run a collect files of whatever seems to fit best (all, selected comps, reduced etc). Then run the script

It has been setup to use rar32 on windows segment size at dvd storage but that is simple to modify to taste.

I have not tested this on the mac side of things but this *should* work

opps. forgot to login. if this helps, it is at line # 69 and the exact error is:
Unable to execute script at line 69. Permission denied (is Preferences > General > Allow Scripts to Write Files and Access Network enabled?)
again, its already enabled.

oddly enough, if my count is correct, this is the line 69, the last line of the script.
} // closing brace



also im on AE 6.0, i'll try this on 6.5 tonight, maybe thats the problem.

ah yes sorry 6.5 and hopefully beyond only :)

I would be curious to see if it spawned and ran the sh file. If it does, super, if not I will have to look into it running a doshell actionscript instead.
