I thought about that but it seems just as complicated and risks leaving lots of files
around locally.
So I'll stick it out and make it work.
I'll figure it out and add it to my up and coming module (If it ever goes anywhere) as
a simple routine:
$ftp->cpfile($origfile,$newfile[,1]); # the '1' being whether to allow
overwriting $newfile if it exists already.
The key, I think is to make sure I understand retr()
I bel;eive this will work:
my $guts;
# What I need to verify is that doing this will put $origfile's content into $guts:
my $retr = $ftp->retr($origfile);
$retr->read($guts, $si);
$retr->close();
# ... or otherwise accomplish that. Anybody know if this is doing what I'm expecting
it to do?
# I know this works for making $newfilename with $guts as it's content
my $stor = $ftp->stor($newfilename);
$stor->write($guts, length($guts));
$stor->close();
