Sitecopy is a tool for maintaining remote websites using FTP. Maintain a
local copy of the site in question, and then sitecopy will use FTP to ensure that the remote site duplicates the local site. Kind of like 'mirror' in reverse.

+sitecopy is for copying locally stored websites to remote web servers.
+The program will upload files to the server which have changed locally,
+and delete files from the server which have been removed locally, to keep
+the remote site synchronized with the local site, with a single command.
+The aim is to remove the hassle of uploading and deleting individual files
+using an FTP client. sitecopy will also optionally try to spot files you move
+locally, and move them remotely.
+
+sitecopy is designed to not care about what is actually on the remote
+server - it simply keeps a record of what it THINKS is in on the remote
+server, and works from that.
