    ufs{dump|restore}(1m)   yesterday

	also disk/mkext -a  with appropriate options (use disk/mkext to extract) to
	make more conventional backups if you haven't the wonder of a file server.
	(note that you can configure a file server as a pseudo worm on normal discs
	if you haven't got a jukebox, and use mkfs or some other means to make
	snapshots to recover from disaster)


	the new wrap helps to create packages of software.  not really a backup
	but it's bound to have peculiar uses.

    pkginfo(1m)             ??
	guessing that it's bound up with the pkginstall stuff, i suppose the closest
	equivalent is  wrap/info
	and  gunzip <package.9gz| disk/mkext -h
