Default Re: Automatic backup of turn files

Another thing I found useful is to pass the game name on the --preexec line.

--preexec "backup.bat GameName"

This way you can use the same script for every game you play and just change the line in properties.

If you also generate the score dump, you can parse that for the turn number and actually save each turn.

I had a fairly simple bash script version, but gave up on converting it to Windows, since the current version behaves badly when running the postexec, at least if it's full screen.
