  x,
  remote = attr(x, "remote"),
  download.missing = TRUE,
  delete.extra = FALSE,
  ...
)

## S3 method for class 'neuronlistfh'
remotesync(
  x,
  remote = attr(x, "remote"),
  download.missing = FALSE,
  delete.extra = FALSE,
  indices = NULL,
  update.object = TRUE,
  ...

x	Object to synchronise with a remote URL
remote	The remote URL to update from
download.missing	Whether to download missing objects (default TRUE)
delete.extra	Whether to delete objects (default TRUE)
...	Additional arguments passed to methods
indices	Character vector naming neurons to update (default indices=NULL implies all neurons).
update.object	Whether to update the neuronlistfh object itself on disk (default TRUE). Note that this assumes that the neuronlistfh object has not been renamed after it was downloaded.

Value

The updated neuronlistfh object (invisibly)
