DESCRIPTION

       Back In Time is a simple backup tool for Linux. This  is  the  Gnome  version.   For  more
       information about Back In Time see backintime man page.

       If you want to run it as root you need to use 'gksu'.

OPTIONS (use these before other actions)

       --profile <profile name>
              select profile by name

       --profile-id <profile id>
              select profile by id

       --keep-mount
              Don't    unmount    on    exit.   Only   valid   with   --snapshots-list-path   and
              --last-snapshot-path.

       --quiet
              suppress status messages on standard output.

       --config PATH
              read config from PATH.

       --checksum
              force to use checksum for checking if files have been changed. This is the same  as
              'Use  checksum  to detect changes' in Options. But you can use this to periodically
              run checksums from cronjobs.
