Digital Workshop

Hello dear Opus friends,
One of my customers asked me if it is possible to make an application that automaticly connects with an ftp server or adress and download the latest version of audiofiles we make for him.
Now he's doing it manual but it would be very nice if it can be automated. (is that propper english...? )

Kind regards,

Yes - use wget with Opus' command line functions.

Mack

Oops... WGET? do you have an example to do it?

Usage is mentioned in this thread.

There are other similar tools around like cURL but wget will be the easiest to use.
You can get the wget windows binaries from

Well it's a bit too dificult for me i think.
can i find a working demo .imp to find out how it's made?

Here's a simple example.
It downloads the file "wget-latest.tar.gz" from ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/wget/
and puts it in the directory you preview the pub in.
The 3 DLL's are required to be in the same folder as wget.exe.

cheers
Paul

Great, it works.
Thank you very much.
