Hi Everybody,

First of all many thanks for this great software. My first full backup was made in 2008 so I use it for 7 years and I still didn't find better. My one and only problem with backup2l appears when I copy or move some large files/directories. This results needlessly large backup files because of current backup2l drivers do not deduplication. I googled a lot for resolve this problem and finally I found zbackup which does not more than back up or restore large files (such as tar archives of backup2l) effectively. So my idea was that backup2l's output should be processed by zbackup. Unfortunately I'm not familiar with shell programming but maybe somebody here could create a zbackup driver for backup2l.
