gdocsbackup.py

	Simple Python Scripts to export automatically all the Google Docs that I own (crontab...)

	NOTE : this is only an export of the document. Due to some limitations on Google Docs service

	some kind of "Documents" can't be re-imported back.

	Drawings are exported in .svg format, useable in Inkscape or another svg editor.

	But when you reimport .svg files in Google Documents, a simple "dumb" file will be created, 

	not a "Drawing" one.. so you lose all svg stuff, it's just a simple flat picture.. Ouch!

gtransfer.py	

	A more advanced script to easier the process of migration from a standard "Google docs" account

	to a new "Google App Pro" account. Google does not allow simple migration of document, you have to do it

	manually or use this script.

	Basically, it will make a copy of each of your owned docs of your old account in your new account.

	Be sure to read all the limitations (versions are lost..) before using it!

	I have successfully proceed to the migration of 20+ more accounts with this script.

You will need : 

   - Python 2.x is mandatory:

	Python 3 is not (yet) supported by Google Data API

		see : https://code.google.com/p/gdata-python-client/issues/detail?id=229
