Re: Passing variables to the scripts

It is not bad idea, however WinSCP currently does not allow it.
But you can easily implement this using .bat file: 
@echo off

rem Do we have some parameters at all?

if "x%1" == "x" goto syntax

rem Delete the old script, if exists

if exist script.txt del script.txt 

:next

rem Append "put" command for the file

echo put %1 >> script.txt

rem Delete the first parameter and shift remaning by one to left

shift

rem Are we at the end of parameter list already?

if not "x%1" == "x" goto next

winscp3 abc@example.com /script=script.txt

goto quit

:syntax

echo upload.bat file1 [file2 ...]

:quit

Passing variables to the scripts

How can we use variables ie. $1, $2 etc within a script and then pass them at invocation.

For example I create a script which need to Put 3 files to the Open SSH server. I would like to invoke a common script with a stored session and pass the filenames in the command line.
Example:
winscp3 abc@example.com /script=ex.txt file1 file2 file3

Within the script I would use
put $1
put $2
put $3
where $1 = file1 etc.

Any ideas anybody?
