Unison is a file-synchronization tool for Unix and Windows, written in OCaml. It allows two replicas of a collection of files and directories to be stored on different hosts (or different disks on the same host), modified separately, and then brought up to date by propagating the changes in each replica to the other.

Unison offers several advantages over various synchronization methods such as CVS, Coda, rsync, Intellisync, etc. Unison can run on and synchronize between Windows and many UNIX platforms. Unison requires no root privileges, system access or kernel changes to function. Unison can synchronize changes to files and directories in both directions, on the same machine, or across a network using ssh or a direct socket connection.

Transfers are optimised using a version of the rsync protocol, making it ideal for slower links. Unison has a clear and precise specification, and is resilient to failure due to its careful handling of the replicas and its private structures.

Některá nová USB zařízení obsahují rovnou proprietární ovladače pro Windows. Toto se týká zejména USB modemů. Při prvním připojení se chovají jako flashdisk a spustí odsud instalaci ovladačů. V momentě, kdy jsou ovladače nainstalovány, zmizí paměťové zařízení a objeví se zařízení nové - například USB modem. Tato vlastnost se nazývá "ZeroCD".

V Debianu není toto chování potřeba, protože ovladač je součástí modulů jádra, jako je například "usbserial". Nicméně zařízení se stejně ve výchozím stavu zobrazuje jako USB paměť (usb-storage). usb-modeswitch řeší tento problém zasláním příkazu, který vlastně provede přepnutí zařízení z módu "usb-storage" do "usb-serial".

Tento balíček obsahuje binární soubory a potřebné skripty.
