LFTP - to download files that are between 0 and 3 days old
Im writing a script and i specifically need it to download files that are between 0-2 days old. This will run every 2 days. I understand lftp supports newer files only, but these files will be removed from the target so this is not what we want.

Does anyone know how to do this?

tv_grab_na_dtv

TV_GRAB_NA_DTV(1p)					User Contributed Perl Documentation					TV_GRAB_NA_DTV(1p)

NAME

       tv_grab_na_dtv - Grab TV listings from DirecTV.

SYNOPSIS

       tv_grab_na_dtv --help

       tv_grab_na_dtv --configure [--config-file FILE] [--root-url URL]

       tv_grab_na_dtv [--config-file FILE] [--root-url URL]
			[--days N] [--offset N] [--channel xmltvid,xmltvid,...]
			[--output FILE] [--quiet] [--debug]

       tv_grab_na_dtv --list-channels [--config-file FILE] [--root-url URL]
			[--output FILE] [--quiet] [--debug]

DESCRIPTION

       Output TV and listings in XMLTV format from directv.com.

       First you must run tv_grab_na_dtv --configure to choose which stations you want to receive.

       Then running tv_grab_na_dtv with no arguments will get listings for the stations you chose for five days including today.

OPTIONS

       --configure Prompt for which stations to download and write the configuration file.

       --config-file FILE Set the name of the configuration file, the default is ~/.xmltv/tv_grab_na_dtv.conf.	This is the file written by
       --configure and read when grabbing.

       --output FILE When grabbing, write output to FILE rather than standard output.

       --days N When grabbing, grab N days rather than 5.

       --offset N Start grabbing at today + N days.

       --quiet Only print error-messages on STDERR.

       --debug Provide more information on progress to stderr to help in debugging.

       --list-channels	  Output a list of all channels that data is available
			     for. The list is in xmltv-format.

       --capabilities Show which capabilities the grabber supports.

       --version Show the version of the grabber.

       --help Print a help message and exit.

ERROR HANDLING

       If the grabber fails to download data, it will print an error message to STDERR and then exit with a status code of 1 to indicate that the
       data is missing.

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES

       The environment variable HOME can be set to change where configuration files are stored. All configuration is stored in $HOME/.xmltv/. On
       Windows, it might be necessary to set HOME to a path without spaces in it.

       TEMP or TMP, if present, will override the directory used to contain temporary files.  Default is "/tmp", so under Windows one of these is
       required.

CREDITS

       Grabber written Rod Roark (http://www.sunsetsystems.com/), modified by Adam Lewandowski (adam@alewando.com) in January 2011 to account for
       DirecTV site changes.

BUGS

       Like any screen-scraping grabber, this one will break regularly as the web site changes, and you should try to fetch a new one from the
       project's repository.  At some point the breakage might not be fixable or it may be that nobody wants to fix it.  Sane people should use
       Schedules Direct instead.
