rsync is a file transfer program capable of efficient remote update
via a fast differencing algorithm.

Spoiler:

Usage: rsync [OPTION]... SRC [SRC]... DEST
  or   rsync [OPTION]... SRC [SRC]... [USER@]HOST:DEST
  or   rsync [OPTION]... SRC [SRC]... [USER@]HOST::DEST
  or   rsync [OPTION]... SRC [SRC]... rsync://[USER@]HOST[:PORT]/DEST
  or   rsync [OPTION]... [USER@]HOST:SRC [DEST]
  or   rsync [OPTION]... [USER@]HOST::SRC [DEST]
  or   rsync [OPTION]... rsync://[USER@]HOST[:PORT]/SRC [DEST]
The ':' usages connect via remote shell, while '::' & 'rsync://' usages connect
to an rsync daemon, and require SRC or DEST to start with a module name.

IPv6 connections to/from the Kindle . . . . .

Thanks for the reminder.
It was a long time ago that I mentioned getting that working.
(All of my 'support server' domains are on IPv6 for a reason.)

/me gets out todo list
/me dig, dig, dig, dig
So far down the todo list now that I lost that page to a coffee spill last year.

Mark: 'maybe, someday'
