WareLogging, FileTransfer, an FTP client. Useful in situations where sane/secure alternatives such as scp are unavailable - won't protect you from the follies of plaintext, but at least it ameliorates the interface pain of plain-jane FTP.

= mirroring local directories =
|
|
|
|
In a pinch, this works nicely from within lftp:
|
|
|
|
mirror -x regex_to_exclude -R ./directory ./remote_directory
|
|
|
|
The -R reverses the normal behavior of mirroring a remote directory to a local one.

= recursively remove directories with lftp =
|
|
|
|
If you're having a hard time recursively deleting directories with lftp, they might contain dotfiles that aren't visible to the client by default. Edit or create ~/.lftp/rc, and add this:
|
|
|
|
set ftp:list-options -a
|
|
|
|
You should then be able to do
|
|
|
|
rm -r dirname
|
|
|
|
painlessly.
