[Dx4win] Use FolderShare to synchronize DX4WIN on two computers

I recently discovered this useful program (thanks to PC Magazine's recent list
of free software):
https://www.foldershare.com/
It allows you to synchronize all the files in one or more folders between two
or more PCs, even those on different networks. I have found this useful for
sharing my development environment between my work and home PCs - no more
uploading/downloading .ZIP files of changes. When I go home, all the changes I
made during the day are already there!
This might have an application for DX4WIN users who want to keep their log
current on more than one machine. The only "twist" is that you should only
modify the log on one machine at a time. When you save the log, the software
will automatically copy the modified file(s) to the other computer. Then on
the other computer, you should close your log, then open it again to see the
changes. If a country file is changed, then you should shut down DX4WIN on the
other computer and restart it.
You could also use this software to just make a backup copy of your DX4WIN
files on a second computer. There is no versioning, so once the log is
changed, that change (good or bad) will be reflected on the other computer.
