in batch mode, a "retry" option would be most helpful
Currently, there are 4 batch mode options:
off,on,abort,continue. It would be extremely useful if there was a retry option (eg retry=5 or something). Here's the context:
I have a batch that connects to download files. I know the files exist because WINSCP attempts to download them (plus I see them when I browse the remote directory). During download, something goes wrong and the download fails:

An option to retry the download (or upload fore that matter) a few times would make life a lot easier... Maybe a second or two delay between reties would also help.
Thanks.
Oh yes... I'm using WinSCP Version 5.13.2 (Build 8455) (OS 6.1.7601 Service Pack 1 - Windows 7 Professional)
