Beyond FTP Script
Editor - Append/To Command
 Back
to Feature Tour
Append performs a file transfer, but does not overwrite the
target file. The semantics of the From/To and Rename File/To commands apply
except for the following restrictions.
The ToOne keyword may be used in place of To if you wish to append a series
of source files to a single target file. In this case, the target file may
not contain a wildcard. MaxPerServer must be set to 1 for this work
correctly!
The target file may only reside on a standard FTP server. Appending is not
performed on local files or on Beyond FTP servers or clients.
There is no temporary file. The information is appended directly to the
target file. If a transfer is interrupted, it may be restarted, but there
can be no intervening transfers or appends. This implies placing Append
commands within conditional blocks, and avoiding the ToOne command when
transferring in a potentially unstable environment.
When the source file resides on a remote Beyond FTP server, that server will
perform the transfer. A Server_List is allowed only for the target FTP
server, and must include only FTP servers.
Example:
:Append: c:\Logfiles\process.Txt
:To: {ftp:Unix}c:\Logresults\complete.txt
