Well, I think you *could* do that, but there's a much easier way: use the command-line tool "wget". It supports ftp as well as http (you'll probably hear it described as for getting "web pages", but it's not limited to that). -- David Dyer-Bennet, dd-b at dd-b.net / New TMDA anti-spam in test John Dyer-Bennet 1915-2002 Memorial Site http://john.dyer-bennet.net Book log: http://www.dd-b.net/dd-b/Ouroboros/booknotes/ New Dragaera mailing lists, see http://dragaera.info
