Can't pipe command line output to local file

from the sftp command line

it seems that something like
should create a file named C:\DirList.txt with the output of the ls command.

Yet when I do this from a WinSCP command line session I can't get the output to pipe.

– is the a problem of the server?
– or am I not entering the pipe parameter correctly?

WinSCP does not support this. You can redirect either whole output of the console interface application (winscp.com) to local file or single remote command (call command > file) to remote file.
