;; Commentary:

;;  This package helps you to keep identical copies of files in more than one
;;  place - possibly on different machines.  When you save a file, it checks
;;  whether it is on the list of files with "shadows", and if so, it tries to
;;  copy it when you exit emacs (or use the shadow-copy-files command).

;; Installation & Use:

;;  Put (require 'shadowfile) in your .emacs; add clusters (if necessary)
;;  and file groups with shadow-define-cluster,
;;  shadow-define-literal-group, and shadow-define-regexp-group (see the
;;  documentation for these functions for information on how and when to
;;  use them).  After doing this once, everything should be automatic.

;;  The lists of clusters and shadows are saved in a file called .shadows,
;;  so that they can be remembered from one emacs session to another, even
;;  (as much as possible) if the emacs session terminates abnormally.  The
;;  files needing to be copied are stored in .shadow_todo; if a file cannot
;;  be copied for any reason, it will stay on the list to be tried again
;;  next time.  The .shadows file should itself have shadows on all your
;;  accounts so that the information in it is consistent everywhere, but
;;  .shadow_todo is local information and should have no shadows.

;;  If you do not want to copy a particular file, you can answer "no" and
;;  be asked again next time you hit C-x 4 s or exit emacs.  If you do not
;;  want to be asked again, use shadow-cancel, and you will not be asked
;;  until you change the file and save it again.  If you do not want to
;;  shadow that file ever again, you can edit it out of the .shadows
;;  buffer.  Anytime you edit the .shadows buffer, you must type M-x
;;  shadow-read-files to load in the new information, or your changes will
;;  be overwritten!

;; Bugs & Warnings:
;;
;;  - It is bad to have two emacses both running shadowfile at the same
;;  time.  It tries to detect this condition, but is not always successful.
;;
;;  - You have to be careful not to edit a file in two locations
;;  before shadowfile has had a chance to copy it; otherwise
;;  "updating shadows" will overwrite one of the changed versions.
;;
;;  - It ought to check modification times of both files to make sure
;;  it is doing the right thing.  This will have to wait until
;;  file-newer-than-file-p works between machines.
;;
;;  - It will not make directories for you, it just fails to copy files
;;  that belong in non-existent directories.
;;
;;  Please report any bugs to me ([e-mail]).  Also let me know
;;  if you have suggestions or would like to be informed of updates.
