Hi all, I'm trying to read file modes via FTP but without success. This for instance...
get-modes ftp-url-to-a-file 'file-modes just returns the following error... ** Script Error: get-modes expected target argument of type: file url block port ** Near: system/words/get-modes port/sub-port modes The target URL's fine, (I can download the file using it), but I can't get the file modes. I'm wanting to set file permissions, but going by old mailing-list threads, there's problems with this via FTP. There is this though... http://www.rebol.org/cgi-bin/cgiwrap/rebol/ml-display-thread.r?m=rmlGMGQ which suggests it can be done, but it pre-dates the current FTP patch by quite a bit (I assume) and is pretty specific. So, am I doing something wrong above, or is this something that can't easily be done with REBOL? -- Carl Read. -- To unsubscribe from the list, just send an email to lists at rebol.com with unsubscribe as the subject.
