Many user configs can be saved/restored with "Menu -> Accessories -> BLOB Theme Manager".

You could also copy your dotfiles somewhere: '~/.*'

Why not just make a dd image of your drive? And create a small script that does it every week or so?

I use https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Fu … with_rsync

rsync(1) copies the differences between the last backup and the current system so it only takes a few minutes every week after the first run.

^ & ^^ But those approaches back up everything, unless you know what to --exclude.

If the OP wants to back up mods which aren't Openbox/desktop settings, then I guess he needs to do it manually or write a script to copy the relevant files.
