*Back ups of all the files mentioned here are copied to the 'cumulus\backup\daily' folder.
*There are no updates to dayfile.txt at any other times, but the contents of the file are read and processed for many of the display and edit menu options selected from the main Cumulus screen.
*The system routines that Cumulus uses to access dayfile.txt require exclusive use of that file, so if you have any other process trying to access that file at end of the (meteorological) day, or when a relevant option is selected from View or Edit menus, one or other may fail. You can use the '''Daily''' box in the bottom left of the ''Sites/Options'' frame within the ''Internet'' options screen from the '''Configuration''' menu to safely take a copy of 'dayfile.txt' after it is updated. See Cumulus '''Help''' for information on using this feature.
