Thanks Werner,

I found some useful info in the quanta help after all, and I was able to write a \
script of my own, which is executed after each Save operation automatically. I did:

1. created a new script action called Sync (in settings > configure actions), with \
parameters sh <full path to the script> %f
Input: None
Output: Message window
Error: Message window

2. added Sync as an action associated with "After Document Save" (in project options \
> event configuration)

3. created a config file (it goes into $HOME/.kde/share/apps/quanta/) in which I \
stored the local directory to sync into, and the ftp password - the inconvenience is \
that the password is stored in plain text but we're talking plain old FTP here...

And it works fine ;-) I'm attaching the script and an example config file in case \
somebody finds it useful (it works only with FTP though).


thanks :-)
Marek
