trying to exclude directories in simple get command
My main goal here is to pull all files that conform to the below mask from /data/outbox. Ive noticed it works but it pulls in additional folders.
Using Winscps "edit File Mask" gui I was able to get this:
monthly*201608*.data; /data/outbox/ | /data/outbox/teamfolder/; /data/outbox/sentfolder/
so the command in the script looks like this:
get -delete -filemask=monthly*201608*.data; /data/outbox/ | /data/outbox/teamfolder/; /data/outbox/sentfolder/ c:\destinationFolder\monthly
I am very unsure of the syntax however, I've tried a bunch of variation of that but still cannot get it to work. It works if I remove the exclusions , but then it pulls in those directories (empty), or in the case of the teamfolder it deletes it. Has anyone gotten this to work and wouldnt mind sharing their syntax?
