- Thread-topic: A more elegant file delete via AppleScript and FTP?
How about this code? Typical and not original one....
<applescript>
set ftpUser to "<username>"
set ftpPass to "<password>"
set fileName to "<filename>"
set ftpServer to "ftpserver_domain/directory/"
set ftpRes to deleteFileOnFTP(ftpUser, ftpPass, ftpServer, fileName) of me
log ftpRes --> contens of specified directory or error message
on deleteFileOnFTP(ftpUser, ftpPass, ftpServer, fileName)
set fText to quoted form of ("ftp://"; & ftpUser & ":" & ftpPass & "@" &
ftpServer)
set aText to "echo 'delete " & fileName & "' | ftp " & fText
set resText to do shell script aText
return resText
end deleteFileOnFTP
</applescript>
