QUOTE

Syntax: quote <string>

FTP Command Index

The QUOTE command sends a string to the FTP server. Use QUOTE to issue commands to the FTP server that are not implemented by the Reflection FTP Client.

With many FTP servers, you can type QUOTE HELP for a list of commands the server recognizes. Typing QUOTE HELP <command> sometimes gives more detailed information about the command.

<string>

Specifies the string to send to the server. Valid strings you can use with the QUOTE command depend entirely on the FTP server; check your server documentation for details.

Example

To create the subdirectory FIFE on a VAX/VMS FTP server, you could use this command:

QUOTE MKD MAYBERRY$USERS:[BARNEY.FIFE]
