To get the list of all downloadable dictionaries including their file size from Sourceforge's FileReleaseSystem (http://sourceforge.net/apps/trac/sourceforge/wiki/Release%20files%20for%20download) you can use the following command (tested under Linux):

Code Select

rsync -avn --include "dictionary**" --exclude "*" -e ssh YOUR_USER_NAME,dictionarymid@frs.sourceforge.net:/home/frs/project/d/di/dictionarymid/

Replace YOUR_USER_NAME with your actual username on sourceforge. The n in -avn stands for dry-run, preventing rsync from applying any modifications.

This can be useful for updating the file list used for OTA downloads as introduced here (http://dictionarymid.sourceforge.net/forum/index.php?topic=146.0).
