File rename after outcommunication (using *.tmp filenames) about bots

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Must also support tmp directory. I have several instances where receiver picks 
up all files in monitored directory, even *.tmp

currently I have done this with subclassing ftp disconnect in 
communicationscript based on filename or folder name ending with 'tmp'.

        # rename files to remove .tmp extensions
        if self.channeldict['filename'].endswith('.tmp'):
            try:
                for f in self.session.nlst('*.tmp'):
                    self.session.rename(f,f[:-4])
            except:
                pass

        # rename files from tmp subdirectory to parent directory
        # assumes all files have an extension, sub-dirs do not
        if self.channeldict['path'].endswith('/tmp'):
            try:
                for f in self.session.nlst('*.*'): # files only!
                    self.session.rename(f,'../%s' %f)
            except:
                pass

hard to make this general. especially for directories.
could use a extra attribute 'append as tmp indicator'; but this only works for 
the file part. Think this would cover most use cases?
