Slight Variation
I keep getting these requests, driven me nuts.
Now I need to be able to put a variable. Variables do not get handed off well to the FTP process commands.
Any ideas?

Example: I wanna put this command in place

put $1.backup.file

FTP is not pulling the filename correctly - I get cannot find file $1.backup.file
