I wanted to transfer multiple files from my Toppy to my pc overnight. The kids complain if I use turbo mode as they lose the use of the remote.

As puppy only accepts a single file, it seemed a good idea to wrap puppy in a script. Here are 2 scripts that I use: Copy them to a directory that is is your path when you log into the slug.

Please understand that my scripting abilities are limited: feel free to offer suggestions. You should also study them as you may want to delete some of the code.

Both scripts understand -h as an option. It displays help. Files on the toppy are in ProgramFiles?, DataFiles? or MP3? so I called these AREAS and gave them shortcuts: p, d & m.

A directory listing with a difference: pdir [-a "area"] [-d] [-f] "dir[/dir...]"

-a allows you to enter an AREA. Use d, p or m for the areas listed above (-a d is the default). If you have created another high level directory then use its (case sensitive) name. -d will list only directories in sorted order -f will list only filenames in sorted order dir[/dir...]There are also sub-directories and they can have sub-directories: So you can specify movie or drama/AllSaints?.

Note: You can specify -d & -f but I dont know why you would want to.

If no options are specified, then the output from puppy is not modified.

To retrieve multiple files: pget [-t] [-a area] [-s sdir[/sdir...]] [-n name] target -t turbo mode off -a allows you to enter an AREA. Use d, p, m for the areas listed above. If you have created another high level directory then use its (case sensitive) name. -s sub directory path (case sensitive) eg drama/AllSaints?. -n partial name (case insensitive)

Because I use a flash drive, I must transfer any files to another pc. So, there is some code to check if I have mounted target as a samba share (mounts are lost on reboot).

If the target does not exist, it will offer to create it.

I normally use pdir a few times to work out where things are and then use pget to copy them. The shell allows you to combine multiple statements on one line. Separate the statements by a semi-colon. eg pget -n kate /gw; pget -s movie -n red /gw transferred kate & leopold and red october to my gateway pc.

My thanks to Peteru for this neat program.

Bugs: Sometimes I am not sure if a message is from puppy or a problem with the script.
