Exclude mask for files
I'm trying to download a file from an ftp site. There are 4 files in the directory, 940data 940data.prior 943data 943data.prior
There are automated scripts that run on the server that once a successful download happens, it moves the data from the ###data files to the ###data.prior files, but it leaves the empty file names there. I'm trying to only download the original ###data files but the filemask either doesn't find anything, or gives me a log output of "Script: Can't get attributes of file '|'.
I've tried (without quotes) "get -filemask=943* | *.prior" and it gave me the file | error. Tried (without quotes) "get 943*|*.prior" and it said transfer complete but didn't actually copy anything and I tried a few other variations but I can't get the file to download.
If I use the GUI, and go into Find Files, if I put in the File mask: 943* | *.prior and click start, it finds the single file that I want to download, I just can't seem to make it work through a batch file, or the command line.
I'm using WinSCP Version 5.1.0 (Build 2625)
Thanks
