I9m a scripting newbie and I have a problem I9d like to solve using
Applescript for OSX/OSXServer.
I need a script that will know when a file has been dropped on a machine via
FTP, so the file can be acted upon as soon as it arrives. There are a large
number of potential directories that the files could end up in, which is why
I9d prefer to watch the FTPd for an event rather than just watch the
directory for a new file, if that9s possible. If watching the individual
directories is the only way to go, then so be it.
Does Applescript for OSX have enough control over the Unix subsystem to be
able to spot this? Any hints on how to code this would be appreciated...I9m
under a bit of a time crunch.
TIA
