Short: Arexx link for GadMGet & AmiFTP/DaFTP V2.10
Author: peterh@fl.net.au
Uploader: peterh@fl.net.au
Type: comm/net
This is FTPGadReq V2.10, a simple utility for use with DaFTP or AMIFTP.
**** REQUIRES REQREXXTOOLS.LIBRARY, GadMGet, & GZip ****
**** Available on Aminet****
FTPGadReq is an Arrex script which filters the output from GadMGet, and
then gets the selected file using AmiFTP or DaFTP. When run, it will
display a requester with 5 options
RECENT.Z ---- GET RECENT.Z from your Aminet host, and extract it
RECENT ---- GET RECENT from your host
OLD ---- use the local RECENT file
INDEX ---- use the local INDEX file
REUSE ---- use the output from the last run of FTPGadReq. (if using
the CLIP: device, this may have been overwritten)
GadMget will then run, using the selected file as source.
When files have been selected, and GadMget quit, AmiFTP will then get these
files for you.
When the file has been received, the description for it in Recent or Index
will be added as a file note.
FTPGadReq also needs some variables to be set by you These are:
client ---- Either AMIFTP or DAFTP
GadPath ---- This is the full path name of GadMget on your system
Recent ---- This is the full pathname for your RECENT file (should be in
your downloads drawer)
Index ---- This is the full pathname for your INDEX file (can be anywhere)
GadOut ---- This is the full path to the file GadMGet writes it's output to
scre ---- The Public Screen which you use for your FTP client (if none
then set to 'Workbench')
downl ---- The path to your download area (must end in ':' or '/')
The variables must be set correctly, and gzip must be in your path for all
options to work.
One note for AmiFTP users: A transfer started via Arexx will not RESUME
an interupted transfer, as the check for an existing file is done before
the client gets the file size from the server, at least this is the case
with version 1.0
This script is freeware, do with it as you will.
