DEVICE COMMANDS

Device commands operate over the device itself. For the commands that operate over the different types of data a device provides see the filesystem commands section.
[ ld | list-devices ]

List compatible devices

[ df | info-storage ] device_number

Show size and use of +Drive and RAM where available

info device_number

Show device info

send file device_number

Send MIDI data file to device

receive device_number file

Receive MIDI data file from device

upgrade firmware device_number

Upgrade the device

FILESYSTEM COMMANDS

Different filesystem operations are implemented on different connectors so a command has the following form:
connector, hyphen (’-’), filesystem name, hyphen (’-’), and the
operation itself
Provided paths must always be prepended with the device id and a colon
(’:’), e.g. 0:/samples. Paths pointing to a data, sound or project file
use the index of a file instead of its name.
These are the available operations.
[ ls | list ] device_number:path_to_directory

List directory contents

mkdir device_number:path_to_directory

Create a directory and its parent directories as needed

[ rmdir | rm ] device_number:path_to_directory

Delete a directory recursively

[ ul | upload ] file device_number:path_to_file_or_directory

Upload a file. If the path does not exist it will be created.

[ dl | download | rdownload | rdl | backup ]
device_number:path_to_file_or_directory [ destination ]

Download a file into the destination directory or the current directory if not provided.

mv device_number:path_to_file_or_directory
device_number:path_to_file_or_directory

Move a file. If the destination path does not exist, it will be created.

Delete a file

cl device_number:path_to_file
