Any chance of adding a "From Date" or a "Date Range"?

Just used this app - thanks!

Is the wish in the title possible?

It's definitely something to consider. I had started some work on a differential export mechanism, which would add the option to export only those messages that were added to the system database since the last full export, and there's some overlap between that code and code that would allow the user to manually specify a date range. That work has stalled, but if I get the chance to return to it, I'll consider adding manual date specification as well.

That all sounds excellent! - an (auto-)incremental backup would be perfect for me!

It seems most of the code is Python - I am more familiar with Ruby but could I help at all?

The app itself is actually written in Kotlin - Python is just used for some utility tools that run on the desktop.

Thank you! Help is always welcome.

Ah, right . .

Well I bought "Programming for Beginners: Learn software engineering with Kotlin" in 2017 but never made much progress with it because other, more urgent, non-programming issues took over . . I should have another look at it . .
