suggestions for easy backup?

[gregory mott]

can anyone tell me the backup program i want?

i want to include&exclude files&directories by clicking checkboxes.
then, i want to be able to further edit the selections in a text editor.
then, i want to pass the selected files to whatever archiver i want.

for the archive, afio/bzip2 would be preferable, because the compression
is per-file, not per-archive, meaning error recovery is more likely.  i
wonder why afio never made it into the redhat dist?

kdat looks like it does almost what i want, except it insists on opening
an actual tape drive, and won't allow an output file.
