Path now is empty by default. If no path is specified, the script will not be executed.
Fixed error when copying globalprefs.oxc, if the file does not exist (thanks to qiuqiu)
Added in v0.4
Now you can use folder aliases as FilePath value. Example: /myarchive\Programs\Directory Opus. I do not know why, but aliases in format {alias|} do not work.
AddDate - this option allows you to add the current date to the file name. If FileName is not specified, the file name will be the current date, even if AddDate = False.
Added in v0.7
Action - this option allows you to set action that will automatically delete, rename or replace existing backup file.
Now you can use extreme backup configuration: rename + 1 minute(s) 
This can be useful if you are frequently making changes to the DO, for example, when testing a button.
All fixed values now can be selected from drop-down lists.
AddDate was discarded.
Added in v0.8
OnTimer - every minute checks for the existence of the file and executes the script, if necessary.
Notes:
- This option has the highest priority in the script, so when you turn it on all other events will be ignored.
- When enabling or disabling this option, you should restart DO. Also if you change any settings of the script, you should restart the program for the changes to take effect.
- If this option is disabled, then all changes will take effect immediately.

Amount - number of backup copies to keep (unlimited if 0)
