[Documentation] Info about --no-convert option is obsolete/incorrect. #511

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
At https://code.google.com/p/googlecl/wiki/ExampleScripts#upload is says:

"Note: Users with a Google Apps Premium account can use an additional option: 
--no-convert. This will let you upload arbitrary filetypes to Docs, like you 
can through the web interface. Unfortunately, this is not enabled for regular 
users."

This doesn't appear to be correct, as I'm a "normal" drive user, and this 
command has backed up a bz2 (and other) files just fine. In fact, seeing that 
info last month put me off even trying googlecl and sent me on a wild goose 
chase. It was only when I found nothing better for command-line moving from 
linux to Drive that I thought I'd actually try it and see what happened and it 
works just fine.

I realise that this was started back when drive was docs and the terminology 
changed, but it seems the functionality is better too.

I'm using googlecl 0.9.14 checked out from SVN which includes gdata 2.0.17.
Python 2.7.3
