ARSperl Utilities: DumpSetup.pl

## DumpSetup.pl

### Purpose

This utility helps you maintain backup copies of your ARS definitions (but not table data). It accomplishes this by exporting all of the definitions to text files and then "checking them in" to an RCS system. In this fashion, no additional diskspace is used for maintaining backup copies unless there is a change to the definition file.

### Ancillary Utilities

RCS. See GNU FTP Site prep.ai.mit.edu
