scp resume

For years I wished that there was a resume option for scp. After a bit of Google work, along with some testing, I now have one using our good friend rsync. Stick this in your .bashrc

alias scpr="rsync --partial --progress --rsh=ssh"

Simple. If you are strange and don’t use bash, stick that in your specific shell’s startup file.

Although not exactly what I was hoping for, it is about time SOMETHING happened. Finally, the Flyers signed Antero Niittymaki to a two year deal. They expect him to back up the newly signed Marty Biron. For most normal NHL teams, the backup goalie doesn’t tend to see a lot of ice time. However, with the non-normal Flyers, they tend to split the duty about 60%-40%. Of course, with a completely new coaching and administrative staff, things may change. Let’s just hope the future will be bright for the Flyers.

If I have to go through what I did last season, I’m not sure how long my heart will last.
