Hello Guys,

I'm pretty new on this programming world, so here is my newbie question
I'm trying to create a batch FTP to run some commands on a remote system i
I have created a TXT member with all the commands I need to run, but one of them is longer than 80 characters
quote rmcd dsphdwrsc type(*ahw) output(*outfile) outfile(qtemp/hdwrsc2) outfilefmt(*type2)

My question is, which the character used to continue with the line below? (like + in CL)

I am not sure how far along you are in your work, but it might still be
worth your while to look at Scott Klement's FTPAPI
<http://www.scottklement.com/ftpapi/>. It is useful mostly because of
the ease with which you can check results and take action as the program
goes along. It accepts a remote command string of 1000 characters,
which will help you now.

The API is most easily called from RPG (because Scott provides a /copy
file with prototypes). For what it's worth, I have been hacking
together a wrapper command to make it easy to use the API from CL. You
can have a copy if you like.

Cheers,
Terry.
