BackUp Application and ScreenSaver

Bugs

Bug: The "About Box" states"© Apple", should be "© LARA-A".

Bug: There are no preferences but the menu is enabled.

Bug: backup from single files does not work.
Workaround: backup the containing folder.

Suggestions

Suggestion: In the "save" or "new" window there is no "new folder" button available.
Workaround: create the folder in the finder first.

Suggestion: Backup action window: "enter" goes to the next line in stead of just reading in the edited text.

Suggestion: Backup action message window: layout will be reviewed. A "close window" button is asked for.
Workaround: use the close button at the top left.

Suggestion: Backup action window: If nothing is selected and "backup items" is pushed, an empty backup action message window pops up, wich can not be closed. Backup action message windows can never be closed.
Workaround: minimize the message windows if they annoy.

Suggestion: Backup action message window: At the end of a backup action, the messages goes away. This means users get no message telling the action ended in succesfully except from the action disappearing.
Workaround: watch carefully, disappearing means "it worked".

Suggestion: Double click does not edit anything.
Workaround: use the edit buttons.

Suggestion: .but files are binary. There is no way of knowing anything about the content by opening it in a text editor.
Workaround: use property list editor from the mac developer package or any XML viewer. This will give more information.

Suggestion: Bootable backups can not be made.
