Description : paper backups of files using QR codes
qr-backup takes file(s), and outputs a "paper backup": a printable black-and-white pdf full of QR codes. To back up your file, print the PDF. The pile of paper in your hand is now a backup of the file.
If your file is lost, corrupted, deleted, etc, you can restore from your paper backup. qr-backup reads the QR barcodes using your computer's webcam (or scanner) to get your file back.
- I am the author of this package. I do use this program, and believe an easy install would benefit others.
- Packaging should be easy (standard makefile, no compilation), for someone experience with debian.
- An example package which may help (for Arch linux) is at https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/tree/PKGBUILD?h=qr-backup
