Description

The Tarsnap frontend is an open source cross-platform Graphical User Interface for the popular Tarsnap backup service, that's easy to use, light and open as the Tarsnap command line client itself. While the original Tarsnap command line client is oriented towards server and scripted backups, facilitating workflows from inside a terminal, the GUI frontend application allows the desktop user to easily back up important files and directories using a lean and no-fuss interface while benefiting from the same power, flexibility, openness and cost effectiveness that the Tarsnap service implies and provides.
