upload backupfiles (generated by external editor)

Hello together,

first: winscp makes a lot of things a lot easier - thanx for that!! :-)


As I didn't find any posts regarding my "problem", I'd like to bring up the question myself:

I use notepad++ as the external editor, which supports a feature to automatically save backups
of the edited file.

For example:
The remote file "data.sh" was locally edited, the original would be saved by notepad++ as "data.sh.bak".
Winscp will upload changed file "data.sh" to the remote host, but not "data.sh.bak".

Now, how can I make winscp upload these backup files (automatically) as well as the edited file?


Thanks a lot in advance!

Erik

I've never thought that anyone would want to do that :-)

This issue has been added to tracker nevertheless. So maybe if more people ask for it...
