    Situation:	I have two nearly identical directories.
		One is from a backup, and the other is real.
		Both contain files and sub-directories
		that the other does not have.

    Wish list:	I would like a way of merging the two directories,
		This needs to be done in such a way that in case of
		duplicate files the most recent file is the one used.

    Request:	Does anyone have a script or a utility for performing
		this task that I may have?

    Thanks in Advance.
