QuickFTP 2.1
With QuickFTP 2.1 you can get or put ascii or binary files from a
server repetitively on a cycle of 10-sec to whatever. In addition,
with command line options you can set up an icon in a windows group
that runs a complete logon-get or put-logoff session automatically.
For the command line:
QUICKFTP
HostName
LoginName
Password
Initial Directory
GET or PUT (G or P)
Source File Name (on remote host if GET; on your PC if PUT)
Destination File Name (on your PC if GET; on remote host if PUT)
BINARY or ASCII (B or A)
NOTIFY or SILENT (N or S) S just puts up a message box if there is an error
while N gives a message at the start and end
(? in place of parameters leaves those parameters for setting on
startup of the program.)
For example:
QUICKFTP ftp.stolaf.edu anonymous hansonr@stolaf.edu pub/origami/WIN
GET qckftp21.zip c:\temp\q.zip BINARY
QuickFTP uses the free SocketWrench/VB socket VBX control by
Catalyst Software (www.earthlink.com), which is included, along with
Visual Basic 3.0 source code for QUICKFTP.EXE. Full SocketWrench info
is in cswsk110.zip, available from www.earthlink.com.
I have observed the errors "SOCKET WOULD BLOCK" and "OUT OF MEMORY" once in
a while when transfering very large (3 Mb) files which I believe are bugs
from the SocketWrench control.
