Thanks Ron, it might be useful.
The main problem I have however, is I don't know what the end user is setting up; the number of mirrors, and the names of the remote and local folders.
I simply insist on all local mirror folders being in a desktop folder (ftp downloads) and a folder action attached, and I monitor those folders. All processed items are stored in a folder '(Archive)' inside each local folder which does not mirror (the items have to be kept). The items are then removed from the Server or remote folder. I've automated the setting of the folder action as well.
Interarchy doesn't seem to allow the reading, checking or instigation of existing mirrors via Applescript, only the setting up of them, which means knowing all details.
What I want to do with Interarchy 10 is run both way mirrors every two minutes.
Regards
Santa
