Program Name: Single File Monitor & Backup Program
Author: DataLife
Version: 1.0
Program Info: Written with AutoHotkey
AutoHotkey Post:
Program Purpose: SingleFileBackUpProgram allows you to choose 1 file to monitor and backup anytime it changes. I have a database that changes quite often. Backing this database up once a day was not enough. So I wrote this script to monitor it and back it up when it changes.. 
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Some features are:
1. Monitor multiple files by making copies of SingleFileBackUpProgram.ahk and put in same or separate folders. Each script will retain its own settings.
2. User can decide how many backup copies you want to keep.
3. The are 6 options on how to name the file that is being backed up.
    A. Date & Time                  (example: Monday December 31 2012, 02 04 47 PM.txt)
    B. FileName-Date & time         (example: OriginalFileName%a_space%-%a_space%%FormattedTime%.ext)
    C. sequential numbers           (example: 1.txt, 2.txt, 3.txt etc...)
    D. FileName-sequential Numbers  (example: OriginalFileName-1.txt, OriginalFileName-2.txt)
    E. Random Numbers               (example: 1.txt, 234.txt)
    F. FileName-Random Numbers      (example: OriginalFileName-234.txt)
4. Progress Bar notification that the file has been backed up. (Turned on by default)
5. Change Menu Colors
6. Show System Tray Icon (Yes by default)
7. Run Program at Windows Startup (No by default)
