So then you have to remember in your program, what files you have processed already and process only the new one.

I'm tryin to do something very similar to the original poster. I am wanting to
  1. compare a local and remote directory
  2. download the changes to a new local directory
  3. check that the download was successful
  4. copy the new files over the old local files
I need to do this because quite often the synchronisation will fail and the files I'm synchronising include the WinSCP INI and script files.

I'm currently looking at backing up the current directory before synchronising and then reverting changes if WinSCP fails. I think that's a better approach anyway.

Would be nice if the WinSCP CLI had a way to recursively compare directories and output the different files.[/list]

I believe that you will find some tools for that.
