Brian,

This is the code I am using to upload to a specific password  
protected area on our server. The original basis for this example  
came from Tedd Sperling who sent an excellent  curl demo program  
(which should be included in the Staz's examples folder in the future).

This example uploads text file a.txt to appends it to text file b.txt

If you do not want to append file b.txt then eliminate the -a option.  
Without the -a option the file at the destination is overwritten.

If you do not want to change the name of file a.txt to b.txt then  
eliminate then b.txt in the url

An issue I am trying to resolve is that with uploading or downloading  
I just want to receive a message if there is an error. In this  
example the container gC always gets server information that I don't  
care about. Likewise with RP's example I am studying now. With a  
download there is much useless data, I only want to know if/why the  
transmission failed so I can alert the user. I suppose I have to read  
each LINE INPUT 2 to see if it starts with "curl:(--)" which probably  
means there is an error.

fileStr = "~/Desktop/a.txt"
etxt = " --quote -quit 2>&1"
url=" ftp://216.201.0.202/b.txt"
cmdStr = "curl -T " + fileStr + " -a "+" -u "+userStr +":" + pwStr +  
url + etxt

open "UNIX", 2, cmdStr

DO
line input #2, strTemp
gC += strTemp + chr$(13)
UNTIL EOF (2)
CLOSE  2
