The -attr (switch for l) turn back to old format

Just in case

-ifexist X switch in add

Do not add() if the X folder does not exists

This is about handling a common problem under *nix, namely mounting external folders (e.g., NFS) within the filesystem.

When for some reason (e.g., reboot) the folders are unmounted, backups are made on the local machine, potentially saturating the disk and creating serious problems.
One fairly clever method is to create, say in the NFS share of a NAS, a folder, say rar

TRANSLATION
Suppose you have

/monta/mygoodnas

that is a

mount 192.168.1.1:/nas /monta/mygoodnas

Then you do

zpaqfranz a /monta/mygoodnas/thebackup.zpaq /home

Suppose a power KO, or whatever. The server reboots, but now the /monta/mygoodnas is a LOCAL folder inside the server's HD

How to fix?
Create a folder (say rar) inside NAS's /nas (=> /nas/rar does exists)

zpaqfranz a /monta/mygoodnas/thebackup.zpaq /home -ifexist /monta/mygoodnas/rar

This wil NOT run, because the rar "sentinel" folder is not on the LOCAL filesystem

Support for console colors on *nix

Should work just about everywhere. Should...

-nocolors on redirect

Automagically remove colors where zpaqfranz's output is redirected to a file

win32/win64hw update

zpaqfranz32.exe and zpaqfranzhw.exe (the 32-bit and 64-bit-SHA-1-Asm-accelerated) can now be automagically updated via the upgrade command
