pscp and psftp are very customizable(options) and light weight. Open source to boot.

WinSCP has the command line functionality:

    c:\&gt;winscp.exe /console /script=example.txt

where scripting is done in `example.txt`.

See http://winscp.net/eng/docs/guide_automation

Refer to http://winscp.net/eng/docs/guide_automation_advanced for details on how to use a scripting language such as Windows command interpreter/php/perl.

FileZilla does have a command line but it is limited to only opening the GUI with a pre-defined server that is in the Site Manager.

WinSCP can be called from batch file:

    &quot;C:\Program Files\WinSCP\WinSCP.exe&quot; /console

Example commands:

    option batch on 
    option confirm off  
    option transfer binary 
    open sftp://username@hostname:port -hostkey=&quot;ssh-rsa &quot; 

www.bitvise.com - sftpc is a good command line client also.

LFTP is great, however it is Linux only. You can find the Windows port [here][1]. Never tried though.

Achtunq, it uses Cygwin, but everything is included in the bundle.

This little application does the job for me. I could not find another CLI based client that would access my IIS based TLS/SSL secured ftp site:

Filezilla is great and it can support &lt;a href=&quot;http://wiki.filezilla-project.org/Command-line_arguments_(Client)&quot;&gt;command line arguments&lt;/a&gt;.

I&#39;ve used PHPMailer on several projects but now I&#39;m stuck. It gives me the error:  
  **SMTP Error: Could not connect to SMTP host.**    
I&#39;ve tried sending email from Thunderbird and it works ! But not through PHPMailer ... Here are the settings from Thunderbird:

**Server name: mail.exampleserver.com  
Port: 587  
Username: user@exampleserver.com  
Secure Authentication: No  
Connection Security: STARTTLS**  

I&#39;ve compared these with the server at my last project where I used PHPMailer and they were:

**Server name: mail.exampleserver2.com  
Port: 465  
Username: user@exampleserver2.com  
Secure Authentication: No  
Connection Security: SSL/TLS**  

My php code is:

     $mail = new PHPMailer();
     $mail-&gt;IsSMTP(); // send via SMTP
     $mail-&gt;Host = SMTP_HOST; // SMTP servers
     $mail-&gt;Port = SMTP_PORT; // SMTP servers
     $mail-&gt;SMTPAuth = true; // turn on SMTP authentication
     $mail-&gt;Username = SMTP_USER; // SMTP username
     $mail-&gt;Password = SMTP_PASSWORD; // SMTP password
     $mail-&gt;From = MAIL_SYSTEM;
     $mail-&gt;FromName = MAIL_SYSTEM_NAME;
     $mail-&gt;AddAddress($aSecuredGetRequest[&#39;email&#39;]);
     $mail-&gt;IsHTML(true); // send as HTML

Where I am wrong?

I am using an `ArrayAdapter&lt;CharSequence&gt;` to populate the items to list in a `android.widget.Spinner`. That works all fine.

But now I want to keep the list of items dynamic, i.e. I want to be able to add/remove items from the selection list at runtime. However, when I call `adapter.add(item)` or `adapter.remove(item)` I always get a `UnsupportedOperationException`, even though the Javadocs of the `ArrayAdapter` class describe these two methods as to be usable for exactly that intended purpose.

Is this a bug, really not implemented or what am I missing here?

Why can&#39;t one add/remove items from an ArrayAdapter?

Most of the windows SFTP clients (like FileZilla) seem to be GUI-based.  I need something I can call from batch files.

I know about the `%USERPROFILE%` system defined environment variable on Windows XP (and Vista and Windows 7).  Is there a system defined environment variable pointing to the location of the &quot;My Documents&quot; directory?  On XP by default it&#39;s `%USERPROFILE%\My Documents` and on Win 7 it&#39;s `%USERPROFILE%\Documents`.  I just wanted to avoid having to test for the OS version in a Powershell script if I can avoid it.

I&#39;d like to run a process and not wait for it to return.  I&#39;ve tried spawn with P_NOWAIT and subprocess like this:

    app = &quot;C:\Windows\Notepad.exe&quot;
    file = &quot;C:\Path\To\File.txt&quot;
    
    pid = subprocess.Popen(
        [app, file], 
        shell=True, 
        stdin=subprocess.PIPE, 
        stdout=subprocess.PIPE,
    ).pid

However, the console window remains until I close Notepad.  Is it possible to launch the process and not wait for it to complete?

With the Linux OS, there is the ionotify subsystem which notifies an application of changes to the filesystem.

However, I am mainly a Windows user, so I was wondering if there is a similar way to monitor filesystem changes?

Is there anything like inotify on Windows?

I want to find out for how long (approximately) some block of code executes. Something like this:

    startStopwatch();
    // do some calculations
    stopStopwatch();
    printf(&quot;%lf&quot;, timeMesuredInSeconds);

How?

I hear/read about it sometimes when talking about .NET, for example &quot;managed code&quot; and &quot;unmanaged code&quot; but I have no idea what they are and what are their differences. What are their difference, by definition? What are the consequences of using either of them? Does this distinction exist in .NET/Windows only?

Given a text file of unknown length, how can I read, for example all *but* the first 2 lines of the file? I know `tail` will give me the last N lines, but I don&#39;t know what N is ahead of time.

So for a file

    AAAA
    BBBB
    CCCC
    DDDD
    EEEE

I want 

    CCCC
    DDDD
    EEEE

And for a file

    AAAA
    BBBB
    CCCC

I&#39;d get just
  
    CCCC

What&#39;s the opposite of head? I want all but the first N lines of a file

So my question is how can I pass a file argument to my bash script using a Terminal command in Linux?
At the moment I&#39;m trying to make a program in bash that can take a file argument from the Terminal and use it as a variable in my program. For example I run 
`myprogram --file=/path/to/file` in Terminal.

# My Program

    #!/bin/bash    
    File=(the path from the argument)  
    externalprogram $File (other parameters)

How can I achieve this with my program?

Previous I issued a question on [how to change Maven project vesion from command line](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/3519005/update-a-maven-project-version-from-script) which lead me to a new issue.

Previously I was able to get the version number since the version was stored as a property that was easy to grep and parse from the command line (bash). Now that the pom.xml `&lt;version&gt;` element is used for this, it no longer is unique since all the dependencies and maybe some others too use this. I think there is no way to get the current version number with a bash script **without** external tools for parsing XML or some very context-aware `sed` command.

The most clean solution in my opinion would be for Maven to hand out this version information. I was thinking of writing a custom maven plugin for retrieving different properties but I thought I&#39;d ask here first.

So, is there any easy way to get the value of `${project.version}` to the command line?

### Solution

I had to `cd` to the directory manually but that can be done easily. In my bash script I have:

&lt;!-- language-all: bash --&gt;
    version=`cd $project_loc &amp;&amp; mvn org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-help-plugin:2.1.1:evaluate -Dexpression=project.version | sed -n -e &#39;/^\[.*\]/ !{ /^[0-9]/ { p; q } }&#39;`

Which gives me the current version that I can then advance. Grepping might be simpler but I thought I&#39;d like as robust as possible, so I&#39;m satisfied with the first line that starts with a number and try to handle this as a version number.

    # Advances the last number of the given version string by one.
    function advance_version () {
        local v=$1
        # Get the last number. First remove any suffixes (such as &#39;-SNAPSHOT&#39;).
        local cleaned=`echo $v | sed -e &#39;s/[^0-9][^0-9]*$//&#39;`
        local last_num=`echo $cleaned | sed -e &#39;s/[0-9]*\.//g&#39;`
        local next_num=$(($last_num+1))
        # Finally replace the last number in version string with the new one.
        echo $v | sed -e &quot;s/[0-9][0-9]*$[^0-9]*$$/$next_num/&quot;
    }

And I use this by simply calling:

    new_version=$(advance_version $version)

I&#39;m trying to use something in bash to show me the line endings in a file printed rather than interpreted. The file is a dump from SSIS/SQL Server being read in by a Linux machine for processing.

* Are there any switches within `vi`, `less`, `more`, etc?

* In addition to seeing the line-endings, I need to know what type of line end it is (`CRLF` or `LF`). How do I find that out?

Hey, for quite a while now, I am looking for a pdf viewer for the command line.

As I like to work without X on Linux, and often work on a remote machine, I would like to have a tool to read pdfs. There are quite a lot of really good graphical programs (evince, okular, acroread, ...) to do the job, so I figured there should be at least one decent text-mode tool. But I don&#39;t even know of a crappy one!

Currently, I either start X only to read pdfs, or use pdftohtml+lynx.
However, the latter does not produce a very good output, and most documents are just unreadable, especially if they contain mathematical formula.

Google is full of people saying either it&#39;s not possible or suggesting the pdftohtml version.

I realise, this is not exactly a programming question, but I am currently considering starting a project to implement such a program, unless there already is a good one out there.

Thanks for any suggestions.

I need to transfer a log file to a remote host using [sftp][1] from a Linux host. I have been provided credentials for the same from my operations group. However, since I don&#39;t have control over other host, I cannot generate and share RSA keys with the other host. 

So is there a way to run the `sftp` command (with the username/password provided) from inside the Bash script through a [cron][2] job?

I found a similar Stack Overflow question, *[Specify password to sftp in a Bash script][3]*, but there was no satisfactory answer to my problem.
