That's very nice of you.

Although I never did find the absolute answer, his suggestion was correct, I
used winSCP, and it was really easy.



<tip type=cache>
Sometimes you want to be sure an image, or html page are served fresh from
the server, and not from the browser's cache, for instance when showing a
webcam image.
a quick way to do this is to append a question mark to the file-name.

<img src="pic.gif?">

>From javascript you can also append a unique string, like this:

var t=new Date()
var myPic=new Image()
myPic.src="pic.gif?"+t

</tip>
