#### rsync GUI with an integrated scheduler, and a CLI

nbRsync is a GUI for rsync that simplifies synchronization of files and directories while preserving the details of the rsync options.

nbRsync works with the concept of Jobs and Tasks. Jobs can contain zero or more Tasks and Tasks can belong to zero or more Jobs.

It is possible to execute commands before and after jobs and tasks.

nbRsync also comes with a built-in scheduler, a scheduler that has to be started from the command line.
