Scan and Copy Redux

A co-worker pointed out that Scan and Copy did not work all that well on XP. Not a real issue, since I had used it to back up win2k machines in prep for a XP roll out. Well, anyways, I made the few changes to XP it, as well as adding in some more functionality.

There are now 3 command line options

-name Names the target directory, which will be created if it does not exist
-target Gives a target directory to place the backup folder in.
A list of file extensions to look for

#Stuff we need
require 'getoptlong'
require 'ftools'
 
#Get the command line options
#Required command lines
# --name 'user name'
# a list of extensions to search for
# -- target 'path'
# Target directory to put stuff into
