FTP Auto Transfer Mode Mistakes?

[pwright2]

When doing FTP downloads of my website, I periodically find that it haS stopped, complaining/warning that transferring binary files in text mode will make them unusable. These are either .php or .js files. I have set both .php and .js as text in the automatic list. Looking at the files does not reveal any hidden binaries (though I am not sure I would know). It is consistent. Attempting FTP of a guilty file gives the same error.

Do you know cause/cure?

TC checks for characters with codes 0..6 in the first block received from the server. The most common case are files in UTF-16 Unicode, where every second character in English is a 0 byte.

It has been a while since I checked in. Thanks for the reply.

If this is the cause, is there a way to tell TC to ignore that particular trigger? Or some other workaround?

Yes, you can add the line:
WarnWrongMode=0

to your wcx_ftp.ini, under section header [General].
