It'd work fine - the easiest way to do this would be to write a shell script
and have it execute via an ingame command. I use this currently to make
backup tar.gz files for staff to download, and to remove those nasty (and
space consuming) core files caused by crashes (only if I don't want to gdb
it).
I'd give you the exact code, but I'm away from my home computer right now -
I'm sure you'll have no trouble doing it on your own though. :)
Good luck,
B. Brown
