[Duplicity-talk] duplicity - restore files

Hi.

I want to implement some kind of a script/program that would display a
tree of all my backed-up files. And when I would choose certain
folder/file I could restore it to the previous versions - I guess
there would have to be a list of all backuped-up times next to the
file.

So if I have a file aaa.txt, which contains text "a", and that file is
added to the remote server, and then another 'a' is added, so the text
is "aa", some more text is added "aaa", and so on. Upon selecting the
file aaa.txt I would then want to display the three dates when the
file was modified:
- aaa.txt 1.12.2011: 12.00 (the file contained "a")
- aaa.txt 2.12.2011: 12.00 (the file contained "aa")
- aaa.txt 3.12.2011: 12.00 (the file contained "aaa")

After that I would select the file intance (whatever I wanted) and I
could download that version.

How much of this can be done by duplicity itself?
1) Can I list all of the version of file, including the dates of file
change? If this is not an option, do I have to use my own database,
which would store all the changes to all the files? If that is so, how
can I display all the files that have been changed in the most recent
sync. I guess some instance of the --verbose command or something.
2) Can I download a specific version of a file? (yes, I know I can
with a -t option: So this only requires to calculate the right time in
past to use with the -t option)
