movedat Client

This command-line file transfer client can be used to browse, exchange, and manipulate files on a servedat server.  Its basic syntax is similar to the secure copy program, "scp":

Downloading (Get):
movedat [user[:password]@]host:<source> [<destination>]

Uploading (Send):
movedat <source> [user[:password]@]host:<destination>

The command line client can also be used to browse directories, rename files, delete files, and retrieve file metadata.  Unlike the graphical client, movedat is also capable of wild-card matching, sending data from stdin, and displaying data to stdout.

The movedat client includes many features to support embedding in scripts and other applications.  DEI Technical Note 0015 explains how you can use the features below to tightly integrate movedat as the transport component of automation and front-end solutions.
