hi,

my backup ofocus was 3.2mb. this is after doing a compact and a rebuild.

shutdown, reopened, saved again, still 3.2mb

then I added 3 linked files (jpg, but not stored as attachments),
so file should not have grown. and it didn't.

it shrunk! now it's 2.3mb.

what happened???

I'm wondering if i accidentally deleted a giant folder full of stuff. Impossible to know since I have so many folders and most are collapsed.

It would be very easy to mistakenly delete a folder as it doesn't require a command-delete, but just a single press with no confirmation such as (do you wish to delete entire folder and all subfolders?) is this normal protocol? or is this an operation that should be changed?

is there any way to compare the two backup files to see easily what is different. i think in microsoft word I can compare two versions of files and it shows in red what's different. is there any app to do this? or a script?

thanks again everyone!
