Alexander, thanks for your excellent ftp program. I use it for scripting operations, and have a couple of questions.
1. Is there any way define a variable in a script and then use it. For example, say I want to download a bunch of files foo1, foo2, foo3, etc. I would like to define the variable 'foo' and then have the script download those files. Later, I may want to download bar1, bar2, bar3, etc. I would like to be able to just change one line rather than many. 2. Is there any way to pass a variable to LFTP on the command line? For example lftp file=foo on the command line, and then use 'file' in the script. 3. Another similar application to #2 is to pass the URL to connect to as an argument on the command line for use in the script. I tried passing the URL on the command line, but it seems that you can't both specify a script and a site on the command line, in other words "lftp myftpsite.com -f script_file" doesn't work. Thanks for your help! ---------- Jon Harris, Sr. Design Engineer, Symetrix, Inc. [email protected]
