note 13985 deleted from function.fopen by alindeman

Note Submitter: thiemonagel@gmx.de Due to request: Description of a workaround for the ftp overwrite anomaly that I have described above: I use a shell script to delete the file first, then I can use fopen to create it again and write to it. This is the script: ############################################## # Script deletes file on remote ftp server # Usage: # dele <server> <user> <password> <remotefile> ftp -n -v << EOF open $1 user $2 $3 dele $4 bye EOF
