Is it ok to copy the .scriv folders to a usb stick, then use work on those files with two different computers: (linux mint) home desktop and road (linux mint) laptop?
I’m just checking because I don’t want to bork my files. Didn’t know if this was SOP or not.
thanks Garpu. I originally copied the entire folder straight in, but got a few error messages. But when I zipped the folder, then moved it over it worked fine.
Just did some more testing. The older 1.6.xx version of Scrivener for Linux I was using added some “” backslashes in some of the directory names and Linux wouldn’t copy them over. Bad filename.
The new 1.7.2.x version does not add the backslashes when creating new filenames. Yay!
Everything seems to work fine after I dump the empty filename + \ directories. Scrivener just creates another directory without the .
I store my Scrivener Project in a folder I sync with DropBox. I’ve never had an issue. I’m able to use any of my computers with Scrivener installed to work on my novel.
