You could probably whip one up very easily using the tarfile module
[http://docs.python.org/lib/module-tarfile.html] and shutil.move()
[http://docs.python.org/lib/module-shutil.html]. Just make a new
TarFile of the directory, save it, then replace any previous backup
file using shutil.move()
Good luck, and have fun!

P.S. And if you're on *nix, you might consider just using a shell
script and the 'tar' command. Right tool for the right job and all
that.

Does any one has any such custom script or function?
