Hi Jim,
You could use CURL or PuTTy SFTP or ask someone to make an external.
You'd need an external for Windows only. Mac OS X and (most versions of)
Linux have CURL installed by default.

I need to support SFTP for a project I'm working on and it seems that even
after all of the legitimate requests for it from the LC community (even over
the years) there is no response from RunRev on this. Unfortunately, I can not
wait for RunRev to respond...I have to keep going.
I've looked at trying to "rig" solutions together to get done what I need to
get done but it would be safer, cleaner and faster if Livecode supported SFTP.
Since it doesn't, can folks please share what they have done with SFTP and
Livecode.
I specifically want to:
1) Check an SFTP server for certain file types
2) Copy them to a much larger storage area
3) Delete them from the original source once they have been moved to the larger
storage area
4) There are many other things I'll be doing with these files but I know LC can
do all of those things which is why I'm trying to do as much with LC as
possible and not willing to integrate multiple peices of software just for
SFTP...but if I have to I will
I know there are scripted versions of SFTP clients on the market and I suppose
that could be an option but LC is the preferred method as I've spent a long
time working with it.
