Hello, the new FXP-enabled "mirror" command is great. I've moved countless gigs with this :). However, there's one thing that I don't like so much about it:
It is a very common task to transfer an entire directory to another FTP, into a directory to be created there with the same dir. Example: I'm logged in to ftp1 in "incoming", and want to transfer the directory "Long_and_complicated_dirname" to ftp2 in "upload". So I do: "mirror Long_and_complicated_dirname ftp://ftp2/upload/Long_and_complicated dirname" This is really not userfriendly, since I have to type (or cut&paste) the Long_and_complicated_dirname twice. I have read the docs and don't see a way to avoid this. Have I overseen something? It would be nice to have an option to automatically create a dir with the same name as the source ftp on the target FTP. This way, the above command would look like this (assuming that the switch for the new option would be -d, for example): mirror -d Long_and_complicated_dirname ftp://ftp2/upload Which would then do the same as the first command. It would not hard to implement this, and it would really make things easier. BTW... this is so far my last point of criticism with lftp; if this is implemented I'd consider it "perfect" for my tasks :). Everything else I wanted is now implemented :) bye, Tillmann
