I recently purchased ScriptFTP - fantastic product, designed just for the advanced user! Thanks for making this available.

Does ScriptFTP support "MODE Z" on-the-fly compression for file transfers?

Thanks,

Feature added.

Hello Chris,

It was not supported by I've just added support for it :) . Please, download and install ScriptFTP again from this URL:

http://www.ScriptFTP.com/ScriptFTP_devel_setup.exe

You can check if it was used or not using the command VERBOSE(ON) on the top of your script and search for "MODE Z" in the output.

Hi there,

Although ScriptFTP checks if MODE Z is supported by the FTP server before using it, I've found that many FTP servers out there drop an error and interrupt the file transfers when MODE Z is used.

MODE Z has been disabled by default and to activate it a new command has been created: SETMODEZ

To activate it: SETMODEZ(ON)
to desactivate it: SETMODEZ(OFF)

As usual, this command should be used before calling PUTFILE, GETFILE or SYNC.

This modification will be officially available in ScriptFTP 3.2. In the meantime the patched version of ScriptFTP 3.1 is:

Thoughts, suggestion or anything else are welcome.
