Hello all, So I followed directions from a previous message, but I've run into a different problem.
I need to get the size of a given file with the ftp program, so I tried something like this: ftp server <<END size filename quit END The problem is, when it returns the information, it doesn't seem to be getting sent to standard out, or whatever you call it. If I do nlist or ls instead of size, even modtime, I can set that output to a variable. But in the case of size, it seems to return as a server message (with a special number before it, like the lines you get when you first log on, while tranferring a file, etc), and I need to somehow capture this information into a variable. How do I do this? Thanks -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
