When my tickets 24 and 25 are ready / closed, it would be nice to see a new Windows version :)

option to disable progress of transfer

StefanK — Thu, 15 Jan 2015 15:49:16 -0000

It would be nice to see an option to disable the progress of transfer.
If you log the transfers, the log file is blown up with the percentage states which aren't necessary for most users, i think.

Save date to log file

StefanK — Thu, 15 Jan 2015 15:46:36 -0000

It would be nice if the date would be logged with the time.
When you append the log with -a you can't see on which date something happened.

Copy file permissions

Wput should be able to preserve Unix file permissions.

customize wput resume offset

fab128 — Mon, 21 Feb 2011 16:39:31 -0000

At this time wput always resumes broken transfers 512 bytes before the end of the file on the server. This is useful to avoir data corruption, but on the other hand it looks like many FTP servers on the market have a bug and does not take into account this resume offset (they always resume transfer from the end of the file, ending up to 512-bytes longer file). I have no problem with gftp which always resume from the end of the file on the server.
On way to easilsy solve this problem -- without having to harass my FAI so that they change their FTP server -- would be to add a command-line argument to customize this resume offset.

wput creates 0 byte files

jonnexen — Tue, 16 Nov 2010 12:21:56 -0000

by using wput on a ubuntu/debian machine it creates 0 byte files on my freeBSD backupserver
I'm using proFTPd.

wput syntax:

#wput ftp://test01:test01@backuptest1.backup-server.de testfile.dat

Please give me a good advise :(

HTTP PUT support

_Vi — Tue, 17 Nov 2009 18:39:20 -0000

wput index.html http://127.0.0.1/index.html should send "HTTP PUT /index.html" request.

In general wput shuld put eveywhere wget can get.

Empty directories ignored

sentient — Tue, 09 Sep 2008 16:18:25 -0000

I may have not found the right flag/option, but my compilation of the current source tree will not create remote directories when my corresponding directories in the local tree are empty, and the invocation is :
wput . ftp://.....

No background mpiled MSWin versionmode on co

Ed Wilson — Fri, 18 Jul 2008 09:02:05 -0000

The compiled wput found compiled at http://wput.sourceforge.net/ for MS Windoze "pre0.6" has no background mode.

The generic doco does mention that wput has a background mode but I couldnt find it in help or by experiementing.

A compiled Wget found does have that feature and I guess because I know its possible - I'd like it!

My skills doing code are limited to batch files so Im not able to delve into the source myself..

Is it just that no one has posted a "0.6" version of the compiled windows exe?

Thanks.
Ed
