Simple script to automatically sync files from a Toshiba FlashAir SD card to a local dir. Linux.

• The card needs to be either in Station mode or Internet pass-through mode, so that it is discoverable on you LAN.
• Give the card a fixed IP address.

It loops forever, scanning every 10s for the card to appear on the LAN. If it does, it recurses through the directories present under /DCIM and if files not present on the server are found, they are copied across.

The sync is pretty simplistic, relying entirely on the filename.
