Automatic post-login functions, write INI file in real-time

I have a couple of feature requests:

1. auto-select site location profile post-login

2. auto-start "synchronize" or "keep directory up-to-date" with pre-selected transfer settings post-login

Eventually, maybe there could be a whole host of things you could automatically invoke post-login and you could arrange them into a list that is executed by priority.

3. write INI file in real-time rather than writing it only on exit. I use multiple instances of WinSCP and am constantly losing settings that I change in one or the other. This would also prevent WinSCP from losing settings after a crash.

I'm not sure I understand what you ask for.

Sorry, I think what I meant was a "Session Location Profile". This would be similar to how most FTP clients can automatically select a local and remote directory of your choice after logging in.

Hmm... OK, interesting. I was kind of hoping there might be a way to do this without having to create separate shortcuts for each profile I have. If not, is there a way to select transfer settings for this command?

You can omit the session on command-line. You'll get login dialog on startup, where you can select the session to perform synchronization on.
