SD 2.0.1 changed saved settings file names
Just a note to other users who might be using scripts to run SuperDuper! (the scripts I use are included below for reference and for your use if you like them).
My scripts use the following to launch SuperDuper! and load a particular backup saved setting: tell application "Finder" activate open document file "Backup Music.sdsp" of folder "Saved Settings" of folder "SuperDuper!" of folder "Application Support" of folder "Library" of folder "edoates" of folder "Users" of startup disk end tell Version 1.x on SD had the file extension name of ".sds". With V2.0.1, that name has changed to ".sdsp". I don't use SD scheduling because I have everything set up for Cronnix scheuduling already, and I dismount my sparse image volume and compact it after SD had finished running.
