Dropbox Uploader is a BASH script which can be used to upload, download, list or delete files from Dropbox, an online file sharing, synchronization and backup service.
From what I can see, the script is not handling Mac file extensions very well.
The script sees a mac file with an extension (example .band) as a file, possibly because it has a period (.) in it, however, it should be treated like a directory because mac files contain other files that can be seen when you "show package contents"
It then tries to download this "file" as if it were a file, but dropbox sees it as a directory, so the request fails.
I had a quick scout of the issues list but couldn't see anything similar in there.
Other than that, I love this script, it's so good to know I have a dropbox backup on my router, excellent!
