I would not suggest to copy system files to home or opt as did the author of this article.
Backup and restore is fine. However backing up and restoring static content is not very efficient.
I would suggest to make a personal extension of configuration files; write it once, read many.

Files ".filetool.lst" and ".xfiletool.lst" are not that obvious.
I would like to suggest to add a "0README.txt" file at "/opt/" and
perhaps another one at "/home/tc/".
