Re: Scripting FTP

[rbaird@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx]

Bill,

You can key (or alternatively, write) the commands into a source file, then
do an override of file INPUT to your source file and member.  then run ftp.

The ftp command does NOT bring up a command line, but simply runs the
script.

the script will have the "connect" and user/password lines, and any other
input you would normally key on the ftp command line.

a
script?  I think I have to key the commands into a source file member but
what do I do to execute them?
