# abrtool version 0.1
# Last Updated Wednesday, November 18, 2009
# Android Backup Data and Restore Data Script

#TODO
# 1- See if config file exists
# 2- If not, create config file (for now, select directory to backup to)
# 3- See if arguments are specified
# 4- If not, return an error via dialog
# 5- If argument -b exists, run backup
# 6- If argument -r exsists, run restore
