Sender: hackers-owner@freebsd.org Precedence: bulk Hi. I am planning to build a utility for freebsd, but wanted to find out (1) if such already existed and (2) if the freebsd team would like to include this in subsequent releases. Esssentially, it's built directly from your version of FTP. Give it a host and a list of files (including wildcards) and it gets them directly using anonymous login. ftpget host file... A second utility returns the directory listing from a particular point ftpdir host path This is a result of me being slowed down by the command line interface to ftp when all I wanted to to was get a single file I knew that path of. Anyway, if it is already extant or in progress, there is no reason for me to build it. If I do, how much I document it depends upon whether ya'll are interested in it. Thanx for the input. -coranth ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Coranth Gryphon Karma: You can't take it with you, but you can send it on ahead.
