Dropbox Backup

Local backup of adc's Dropbox account on bluey home PC.

Installation of Dropbox Linux software

From website:

https://www.dropbox.com/install-linux

2025-03-02
Performed “headless install via command line” from that page.

Also downloaded the dropbox.py script, moved it to /home/anthony/., made it executable, and made a symlink to it in /usr/local/bin, which is on PATH.

Now can run commands using this script from the bash command line, e.g.:

dropbox status
dropbox help
