-Then, whenever you use rdiff-backup (or at least if you are backing up
-to or restoring from a Windows system), use the
-<strong>--windows-time-format</strong> switch, which will tell
-rdiff-backup not to put a colon (":") in a filename (this option was
-added after Jason posted his message).  Finally, as Michael Muegel
-points out, you have to exclude all files from the source directory
-which have colons in them, so add something like the --exclude ".*:.*"
-option.  In the near future some quoting facility may be added to deal
-with these issues.
+Then, whenever you use rdiff-backup to back up from a unix system to
+Windows, use the <strong>--windows-mode</strong> switch.  This
+compensates for some windows file systems' inability to store hard
+links, symlinks, device files, sockets, fifos, case sensitive
+filenames, and filenames with colons (":") in them.  (Note: device
+files, symlinks, fifos, and sockets will simply be skipped, and hard
+link information will not be recorded.)
+
+<p>If you are backing up one windows system to another, full
+--windows-mode is not necessary, but you'll still need
+<strong>--windows-time-format</strong>, which stops rdiff-backup from
+trying to make increment files with colons in them.
