FrameMaker's Backup Files
FrameMaker has an option for creating backup files every time you save a file, but it has no option for saving the backup files to a different folder. As a result, you can end up with a file folder in which it's difficult to find the file that you want.
To fix this problem, you can run a batch command to move all the backup files to a folder other than the one that contains your working files.
1. Open a command prompt.
2. Type the following and press ENTER:
move /y <drive letter>:\<path to main folder>\*.backup.fm <drive letter>:\<path to backup folder>
(Make sure that you include the space before the drive letter and path to the backup folder.)
For example, assume that you have your main files in the H:\Guides\UserGuide folder and that your backup folder is the UserGuideBackup folder on drive C. You would type the following at the command prompt:
move /y h:\guides\userguide\*.backup.fm c:\UserGuideBackup
