Hello.

is it possible to download a file form folder a to folder b without creating a new dir named a in folder b?

Thanks a lot.

I am interested if this is possible as well.

I have tried all variations of 

dropbox_uploader.sh download some/folder different_folder/

with and without final slash, tried with wildcard like some/folder/* but no luck.

Hi all, if you don't have find solution to this yet, i have a workaround :)

to download all content from dropbox folder A to machine folder /user/tmp/files_from_dropbox

I have created a Symlink in an other folder with the name of the folder A that is located in Dropbox, that point to the folder that I want the files to go.

ln -s /user/tmp/files_from_dropbox /user/tmp/A

then I use the command:

./dropbox_uploader.sh download A /user/tmp/

That's all, I have test it and it work perfectly.

Hope this will help.
