Scripting Methods → Command Placement, Parameters, Style, etc.

In PyroBatchFTP command files, the following applies to command and parameter pacement:

Comment
Comments can be placed in script on lines that begin with "//", "#" or ";" followed by a space character. It is not possible to place comments in the same line with commands.
Comments that start with '##' will not be shown in the progress window and will be excluded from the log file.

Commands
Commands can be written in upper or lower case with eactly one command per line. It is possible to indent commands using space or tab.

Parameters
If commands require parameters, the parameters are provided after the command word. An optional "(" character may appear between the command and parameters. Space, Tab or "," can be used as a separators between parameters. Parameters which contain space characters must be enclosed in single our double quotes.

Ignore Errors
It is possible to prefix a command with a dash ("-") to suppress error checking for this command. Commands that start with a dash will be always be treated as successful.

Retry Errors
Commands may be prefixed by an "@" character to retry them in case of errors (see SetRetry command).

Style
The above rules allow the writing of command files in different styles, depending on your preference. However, we recommend using double quotes and commas.
