I just discovered a much faster way of doing routines like updating web pages, etc., using automated scripts. First, setup .netrc with user name, password:
example:
01 machine mysite.net login xxxxx password xxxxxxx
Now write your routine to a file. Common commands include cd, send, get, bye:
example, ftp_script:
cd /mypath/file
get file
bye
To run, type" ftp mysite.net < ftp_script" and the task is performed within seconds. The script can be run within a larger script, for example, that opens amaya.uci to the file you just ftp'd over. Very fast!!!
example:
#!/bin/bash
ftp mysite.net < get_index
[ -d /opt/amaya ] || mydsl-load /mnt/hda3/Downloads/amaya.uci
/opt/amaya/wx/bin/amaya index.htm &
