- I don't remember who wrote it, but there is an FTP/REXX interface available
- for VM from somewhere on the internet called FTPEXEC. You can put a script
- written in REXX into a file called FOO FTP (filetype must be FTP) and then
- have FTPEXEC run it. This script has the ability to test return codes, etc.
-
- I'll try to find out where it can be obtained. If anyone else knows, please
- help.
