Added a hack to VR to allow it sync your repository.

VR, The “VirtualRegent” was a start of a helpful bot before there was such a thing as RemoteWisdom. As a bot that would contact outward, it could maintain a bidirectional channel for status and payloads — basically for information and uploads or downloads. It even has a Jabber bot so the the tools we already have can talk to it.

I created a way to self-test commands — such as “checksum XX file” and a “fetch” topic to test download such as software updates.

This test function became the more common usage: for example “VR –demofetch” will fetch you everything you need to set up a demo, except for the license file.

I’ve added the command “syncfae” so that “VR –cmd syncfae” does what’s needed to sync the FAE Toolkit on windows. This is abbreviated with the option “–sync” to VR.jar, expanding to “–cmd syncfae”, so that fewer keypresses are needed ot get the sync started. It’s not that I think people are not intelligent, it’s that the fewer buttons on the remote control, the better the chance that the user will choose the right one.

“VR –sync” will download rsync.exe, cygwin1.dll, and use them to synchronize the contents to a local directory called FAE.
