Backuper is a CD-R and DVD-R backup application.

Here are some key features of "Backuper":
Version 3.0 is completely rewritten in Perl (from scratch),
recorded data integrity verification (using MD5 signatures),
medium type and size autodetection,
dumb mode support,
CD-R/DVD-R media are supported,
logging, notifying the administrator via mail,
backup a specific directory (with subdirectories) _OR_ files and directories listed in specific file; excludes are also supported,
no-disc, full-disc, damaged-disc autodetection,
be warned when the medium is almost full (before the medium is actually full),

Requirements:
cdrtools version 2.x by J?rg Schilling
gzip (GNU zip),
GNU tar,
Perl and some modules: Config::Tiny, IO::File, File::Path, Mail::Sender, Digest::MD5 (the easiest way to install them is by "perl -MCPAN -e shell" and then "install [module]"),
"standard" UNIX utilities (you should have these already): cat, mount, umount, cut, sed, tr, ls, du, grep and wc.
