0.6 Version Six (4 May 2012)

  * Used "unset" to remove the variables at end of the script
  * Fixed a problem when the backup folder on S3 was nested inside another bucket
  * Changed the PASSPHRASE field to default to the actual passphrase, so one can easily backup the entire script and not have to worry about the passphrase.
  * Added --backup-this-script option which will turn the script and the secret key into an encrypted tarball that can be kept somewhere safe for easy restores if the machine goes down.
  * Cleaned up the get_file_size function so it wouldn't run when it wasn't supposed to.
