How can i do XP Dosbox: ftp dir >c:\dir.txt
Carsten Beckermann
XP SP3 Dosbox
ftp client in Windows can show me the DIR of a ftp folder.
Switching to FTP mode by typing FTP in the dosbox
Under FTP, a "dir >C:\dir.txt" does not work for me.
How can i send that output to a txt File?
I want to get the directory listing into a textfile.
Any ideas?
Greetings

Create an FTP script to log in, do the dir and log out, and use the script
syntax:
FTP -s:script.txt >c:\dir.txt

An example of getting the listing of Garbo's /pc/ts directory
@echo off & setlocal enableextensions
set scr_=%temp%\ftp$$$.tmp
set log_=%temp%\ftp.log
> "%scr_%" echo verbose
>>"%scr_%" echo open garbo.uwasa.fi
>>"%scr_%" echo anonymous
>>"%scr_%" echo my...@mypc.mydomain
>>"%scr_%" echo cd /pc/ts
>>"%scr_%" echo verbose
>>"%scr_%" echo ls -lF
>>"%scr_%" echo verbose
>>"%scr_%" echo quit
ftp -s:"%scr_%">"%log_%"
type "%log_%"
for %%f in ("%scr_%" "%log_%") do if exist %%f del %%f
endlocal & goto :EOF
If you wish to keep the directory listing, naturally don't delete the
log_ file.
All the best, Timo

Hello
Thank You all for Your help.
I found out, that in my case, the DIR command of the XP DOS FTP Client have
an own output function:
dir mydirectory c:\directory.txt
That line will dir the FTP folder MYDIRECTORY into the local txt file
c:\directory.txt.
In that line, there is no need for an arrow to send the output into the
textfile.
Again, thank You all for Your ideas.
