Full Discussion: ftp append question
Special Forums UNIX and Linux Applications ftp append question Post 302148987 by Lindarella on Tuesday 4th of December 2007 01:35:41 PM

I looked at the man page but it didn't really answer my question.

So I did a quick test and the answer is yes - it does.

If the file does not exist append will put it there, just as if you had said put.

Should have done that in the first place, but I was hoping to be lazy and that one of you would know off the top of your guru-smart heads. Smilie

Thanks!

__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

NAME
lappend - Append list elements onto a variable SYNOPSIS
lappend varName ?value value value ...? _________________________________________________________________ DESCRIPTION
This command treats the variable given by varName as a list and appends each of the value arguments to that list as a separate element, with spaces between elements. If varName doesn't exist, it is created as a list with elements given by the value arguments. Lappend is similar to append except that the values are appended as list elements rather than raw text. This command provides a relatively efficient way to build up large lists. For example, ``lappend a $b'' is much more efficient than ``set a [concat $a [list $b]]'' when $a is long. EXAMPLE
Using lappend to build up a list of numbers. % set var 1 1 % lappend var 2 1 2 % lappend var 3 4 5 1 2 3 4 5 SEE ALSO
