Is it possible to edit a file on ftp?
What i want is to read contents from local file,
and paste it to ftp file.
I think it will be better than FTPPutFile
WriteLn to ftp

Re: WriteLn to ftp
Hi,
No, because there's no such thing. FTP stands for File Transfer Protocol. You need to download, edit, then PUT.
Those nice FTP apps you use, that's what they do. Behind the scenes they download the file to local storage and when you edit and hit save they just upload it again. FTP just transfers files, so when you edit a file on an FTP server you're actually downloading and uploading it again.
