And, if you don't have ssh access to the web server -- but rather, just 
ftp -- there's `ftpsync` which I use.  When Googling for `ftpsync` , 
ignore the windo$ hits.  There's a name collison there.  You want the 
linux program.

Be carefull with ".htaccess".  heh heh  Mine are different for the local 
machine -- mainly for testing and local lan purposes.  Now and then I 
screw up and upload an .htaccess from the local web server to the 
World-Wide-Web server.  Big snafu - that!  :-)
