Hi guys,

I have a question on Time Machine (or any alternative sw you may know ;)).
Basically, I set up TM on my MBP a couple of days ago and it runs smoothly, but I don't understand if there's a way to "compare" current status with any of past snapshots.

I have the following scenario in mind: a day I delete one document by accident and I see it's missing only 3 days after, when I'm going to open it.

Now, if I go too far in the past, I'll get an elder version of my document, but if I go back one step at time, it will take ages, since I'll have all the shapshot of that particular folder, even if no change happened...

I know that I can simply browse with finder the TimeMachine repository, but it's not so easy if I'm looking to latest change to the doc (plus, browsing it with finder is not a mac-ish solution :p)

Thanks,
Luca
