I don't have much important data and I do my back-ups in the most simple way by saving my /home directory except for a few directories to a DVD. But K3B asks if i want to save hidden files. If I answer no, the .thunderbird and .evolution directories aren't saved and there's some important data in there. If I answer yes, there then is a sleuth of hidden files that are saved that I don't really need. One way around this is to copy those 2 directories and then rename them without the beginning ".". This way you miss a few files or directories if you don't also rename them -- such as .#evolution.sbd and .parentlock -- which... might not be important -- but why the hell are .thunderbird and .evolution hidden in the first place?
