FTP - Resolving Environment Variables

Creating FTP script on the fly at runtime and using variables within the FTP script.

Description:

This batch executed the FTP script embedded within the batch. All variables in the FTP script will be resolved.

The FOR loop extracts the FTP script into a temporary file. It the ECHO command is being CALLed for each line in order to resolve the variables.

Variables can be used within the FTP script the same way as in a batch script, including any string manipulation and command line arguments like %1 %2 %~n0 %* and so on.

All batch lines start with semicolon so that they will be ignored by the FOR loop. Semicolon is the default end-of-line (EOL) character used by the FOR command.

Script:
