I would like to compare the modification date of a binary file on an ftp server with that of a corresponding binary file in a folder on the hard disk.
The purpose is to download files of the ftp server ony when their modification date date is older than those of the files in the hard disk
I guess there must be a way of doing it, but I am unable to find out how.
There's a "How To" on How to list the files in an FTP directory - summary is that an FTP URL which finishes in a "/" will give back a directory listing, including the name, size, permissions, owner, and last modification date
The example given is : put URL "ftp://ftp.example.net/mydir/"; into field "List"
Take comparing modification times between systems for different clock settings - you may want to check current time on each machine and use that to adjust your decisions.
