Yeah this is requested a lot. The problem is that there is alot of architecture that you need to bring up that enables the sync and also to bring up the connection to dropbox. I can look into this, but it will most likely be about the same as running the actual app minus the UI. I get the automation part though, I guess many people schedule things with some other apps to run. I'm hesitant to make the sync clock functionality myself, I think there are better separate apps for this.

Can you tell me how you parametrize this thing you would be using. you just give it a line like "python dropn900-sync.py --to "/home/user/whee" --from "/Dropbox/MyPhotos""?
