[BackupPC-users] A simple perl script to call Backuppc

Hi everyone.
I was not satisfied on how BackupPC_archiveStart works, so I decided
to write a script that should help me with BackupPC_tarCreate and
cron, avoiding to edit crontab everytime I edit a host or a share to
backuppc configuration.
The script is attached.
I'm a Perl beginner, so I think it could have be done much better.
You're welcome for suggestions or to improving.

This is the help of the command line:

---
BackupPC_tarCreateAll [--dir|-d /path/to/archive/dir] (default:
/var/lib/backuppc/)
                      [--cfgdir|-c /path/to/config/dir] (default:
/etc/backuppc/)
                      [--hostfile|-f hosts_filename] (default: hosts)
                      [--help|-h (print this help)]
                      [--pretend|-p] (do nothing, only shows what would be done)

Archive files will be created as <share name>@<host name>.tar.gz under
archive directory

Regards.
