Syntax: append <clientfile> [to] [<serverfile>]
The APPEND command sends a file to the FTP server, appending it to the current server file. If the server file does not exist, this command creates it, and works exactly like the PUT command.
<clientfile> |
Specifies the PC file to transfer to the FTP server. |
to <serverfile> |
Specifies the server file to which the PC file should be appended. If this option is omitted, the PC file is appended to a server file having the same name as the PC file. If the specified server file does not exist, it is created. The TO keyword is optional. |
Examples
The following command appends a PC file to a server file of the same name:
APPEND WHATSNEW.DOC
This command appends a PC file to the specified server file:
APPEND WHATSNEW.DOC TO DOCUMENT.TXT
