Re: Executing remote commands in FTP

["David Morris" <dmorris@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Patrick,

One further note, if you use an extension of .savf, you can bypass the 
creation of the save file.

I frequently use a script with something like that I store on my desktop (don't 
tell anyone about the password part):

open site.com
user dmorris
pass mypass
quote site namefmt 1
bin
cd targetlib
lcd c:/temp

Then I enter:
put file.savf
quit

...Before you can transfer a save file it must exist on the local or remote
system. Otherwise the FTP server will create an empty physical file for
you and this won't work for the save file... 

You can contact me directly if you have questions about our product:
