Auto monitor at startup- As soon as the program is running, the monitor is on.

Search changed files at startup- Some files are created before the program runs and the monitor can not detect them, so need to search them. If this option is checked, the program will automatically search the changed files and add to the upload queue.

Watch subdirectories- By default, this is a selected option. It means that all files under the monitored directory or its subdirectories are needed to be synchronized.

Add/Modify Files- This is one of the monitor actions. When a new file under the monitored directory is created or modified, the monitor will detect this change in no time and handle it.

Rename Files- Monitor the change of renaming files.

Delete Files- Monitor the change of deleting files.

Always Overwrite- If a file exists on the ftp server, always overwrite it. If this option is not selected, the program will compare the local file time with the FTP server¡¯s file time and determine whether to upload it. Note that if you do not check this option, you had better kept the sever time the same as the local time in order to making upload correctly. If the local file time is older than the server¡¯s, the file will not be uploaded.

Backup a file before overwrite it- Before overwrite an existent ftp file, rename it with the extension of .msync.
