connections.
Based on code in the version of ftp that FreeBSD had before they
replaced it with lukemftp.
* Move error message handling into ftp_connect() rather than in the
caller, so that more specific error reporting can occur.
* Improve consistency of various warning and error messages.
the word is already complete then return CC_REFRESH so that the higher layer
may append a suffix if necessary. Fix from Launey Thomas <ljt@alum.mit.edu>.
* fix bug where the second press of <TAB> on an empty word (i.e, list
all options) may have resulted in an strncmp() against NULL. (detected
by _DIAGASSERT())
for listings of the current working directory; some ftp servers don't
like `NLST .'.
[noted by Giles Lean <giles@nemeton.com.au>]
* recvrequest(): treat remote=="" as remote==NULL when calling command().
(to support the above change)
* support `[user@]' in `[user@]host' and `[user@]host[:][path]'.
[based on idea (and initial code) from David Maxwell <david@fundy.ca>]
* `idle' may be invoked without any args
* reformat some comments
* reformat usage string in program and man page
* call updateremotepwd() after successful login, not after successful connect
* always call setsockopt(, IPPROTO_IP, IP_TOS, ) (et al); using #if
defined(IPPROTO_IP) doesn't work on certain foreign systems where
enums instead of #defines are used...
[noted by Matthias Pfaller <leo@dachau.marco.de>]
- add `usage'; displays the usage of a command.
implemented by calling the c_handler() with argc = 0, argv = "funcname".
- add `passive auto'; does the same as $FTPMODE=auto.
- add `set [option value]'; display all options, or set an option to a value.
- add `unset option'; unset an option.
- add getoptionvalue() to retrieve an option's value, and replace a few
global variables with calls to this.
- implement cleanuppeer(), which resets various bits of state back to
`disconnected'. call in disconnect() and lostpeer().
- support completing on `options'.
- improve recovery after a SIGINT may have closed the connection.
XXX: there's still a couple to fix
other stuff:
- various consistency fixes in the man page.
- ensure that the command usage strings in the code and man page match reality.
- mput/mget: check that the connection still exists before each xfer.
- minor cosmetic changes in confirm().
- set code correctly in sizecmd() and modtime()
- don't need \n in err() strings.
- change lostpeer to take an argument (rather than casting (sig_t)lostpeer
in signal handlers)
- knf and whitespace police.
lpage page local files
pdir as dir, but through your $PAGER
pls as ls, but through your $PAGER
* implement docase() (a la dotrans() et al) and use appropriately, rototilling
some duplicated code
* globulize(): modify to return a pointer to the strdup()ed result in all cases,
and hack the code that calls it to take this into account
* replace strcpy() and strncpy() with strlcpy()
* put(), getit(): use some aptly named local vars instead of argv[...]
* delint
prototype for idle() in <unistd.h> (which i thought was against namespace
and sensibility guidelines, but...)
* consistently use xsignal() instead of signal(). we get known behaviour
in all cases (SA_RESTART), which is good for some borken foreign systems.
* remove signal.h from most files; it's unnecessary now
* fetch_url(): use `long chunksize' instead of ssize_t; it's more portable, and
we're setting chunksize with strtol() anyway
* xsignal(): only use SA_RESTART if it exists. SunOS 4.x doesn't have it
but has the inverse (SA_INTERRUPT). the original function i was inspired
from had this support (lib/signal.c, W. Richard Stevens' `UNP 2nd ed Vol 1').
* remove <termios.h> from util.c; it should be unnecessary now
it's more portable and more obvious
* remove the mkgmtime() && HAVE_TIMEGM stuff:
a) why should netbsd have to define HAVE_TIMEGM to compile cleanly?
b) foreign compiles of ftp should just be linked with working
timegm function
a more portable version of this ftp client will be released as a 3rdparty
product; no use polluting our code with half-baked attempts...
NO_PROGRESS. -DSMALL still implies all of those. progress meter support
isn't necessary for the smallest possible ftp client, but it adds very
little space and makes users' lives much better. Therefore, it should
be enabled for installation media if at all possible.
* implement ftpvis(), which \ quotes the following in the given string:
SP, TAB, \, CR, "
* use ftpvis() in complete_ambiguous(), to escape characters in a word
which would confuse makeargv()/slurpstring().
* support $no_proxy, which is a comma or space separated list of
host[:port] elements for which proxying is to be disabled.
(asked for by cgd in [bin/5027])
* if $FTPANONPASS is defined, use that as the anon ftp password
(instead of "`whoami`@")
* allow http URL's without a filename as long as an output file
is specified.
other stuff:
* implement parse_url(), which breaks up a URL into its bits, and use.
* simplify url_get() and auto_fetch() to use parse_url() and to not
modify the supplied URL or a copy of it.
* implement xmalloc() and xstrdup(); error-checked malloc()/strdup()
* add more consistency to messages, quoting strings in output as `%s'
* default to passive with active fallback. $FTPMODE modifies this behaviour.
-A forces active connection.
* support '-o outfile' for auto-fetched files. outfile can be a file,
`-' (for stdout), or '|command' (to output each file through command).
* support '-r waittime', which retries the connection after waittime seconds
if it fails.
* fix 'page file' when restart is non-zero.
* try all ip-addresses of a host in a http fetch (as the normal ftp fetch
does).
XXX: a ``broken pipe'' error sometimes occurs with -o '|command';
i haven't tracked this down yet.
* in command completion, append a space to a definite match
* in local path completion, append a space or / to a definite match,
depending if the path is a non-directory or directory respectively
(nothing added to remote path completion yet, until a simple sane method
of determining if the path is a directory or not is available).
* don't interpret '-' or '|' when a local filename is determined from
the remote name (i.e, in mget, and in get with only one argument).
This is implemented using an extra argument to recvrequest().
Fixes a major security hole.
* clean up memory leak when using globulize()
* clean up a couple of comments
* fix wording in TNF copyright
features added:
* support for TIS fwtk gate-ftp servers:
* read defaults from $FTPSERVER && $FTPSERVERPORT
* start in gate-ftp mode if invoked as 'gate-ftp'
* toggle or set with 'gate [host [port]]'
* cleanup for WARNS=1 (including some ugly '(void)&var' bits wrapped in
#ifdef __GNUC__ to shut up gcc warnings WRT setjmp/longjmp)
* use strtol() instead of atoi(), and more extensively check result of
conversion
* use u_int16_t instead of short or int for TCP port addresses
* differentiate between being connected, and being logged in
* cleanup some text messages
* support username & password ftp URLs (ftp://user:pass@host/) in non-proxy
situations; assume proxy supports it for proxy situations.
* cd to / before performing any autofetch transfers
* use strncasecmp in URL parsing. fix from <Todd.Miller@courtesan.com>
* only echo "Passive mode" in verbose mode; scripts that use ftp
may get unwanted output otherwise
* disable progress bar and modification time preservation when
retreiving to a non-regular files. fixes progress bar getting in
way of "get file /dev/tty"
* setup el_init() et al if editing is set, not if fromatty.
TODO: migrate this to a function, and call if editing is turned on later
in the session. also implement edit_cleanup if editing is turned off
* call el_set() after setting SIGWINCH handler. This fixes the problem
when suspending in a non-cbreak shell (e.g, csh) would trash your tty mode.
* reset interactive mode correctly in auto_fetch() mget mode
* support remglobbing of auto_fetch arguments
* new flag - '-e'; disable editing
* "page file" == "get file |${PAGER-less}"
Bugfixes/cleanup:
* consistently use a trailing '.' on messages
* code cleanup, including buffer overrun fixes, use puts
and putchar in places, etc (inspired by OpenBSD mods)
* disable progress bar when local-file is a pipe or '-'
* skip \r in http headers
* fix remote ftpd slash bug more elegantly (so it works with ////)
* abort_remote(): check if cout==NULL before using it. should fix [bin/3273]
* fixed up cosmetic problems when complete_remote() generated errors from the
remote server (such as "no files found", "login with user and pass", ...)
done by adding extra argument to remglob(), which is a pointer to an error
buffer to put messages in rather than printing to stdout.
barring any more little things people want added ...]
New features:
* progressmeter is now asynchronous, so "stalled" transfers can be
detected. "- stalled -" is displayed instead of the ETA in this case.
When the xfer resumes, the time that the xfer was stalled for is
factored out of the ETA. It is debatable whether this is better than
not factoring it out, but I like it this way (I.e, if it stalls for 8
seconds and the ETA was 30 seconds, when it resumes the ETA will still
be 30 seconds).
* verbosity can be disabled on the command line (-V), so that in auto-fetch
mode the only lines displayed will be a description of the file, and
the progress bar (if possible)
* if the screen is resized (and detected via the SIGWINCH signal), the
progress bar will rescale automatically.
Bugs fixed:
* progress bar will not use the last character on the line, as this can
cause problems on some terminals
* screen dimensions (via ioctl(TIOCWINSZ)) should use stdout not stdin
* progressmeter() used some vars before initialising them
* ^D will quit now. [fixes bin/3162]
* use hstrerror() to generate error message for host name lookup failure.
* use getcwd instead of getwd (it should have been OK, but why tempt fate?)
* auto-fetch transfers will always return a positive exit value upon failure
or interruption, relative to the file's position in argv[].
* remote completion of / will work, without putting a leading "///".
This is actually a bug in ftpd(1), where "NLST /" prefixes all names
with "//", but fixing every ftpd(1) is not an option...
* Command line editing via editline(3) library.
* Context sensitive command and file completion, including remote files.
Enhancements to auto-fetch feature:
* Support for http:// URLs using the http protocol, including proxy HTTP
support via $htty_proxy if it's defined.
* The connection is kept open between successive files on the same host.
(obviously, this does not count for http requests.)
* Return value of ftp is 0 on no error, or the offset in argv[] of the file
which failed (i.e., argv[x] failed, ftp returns x).
* If the path in an ftp URL or classic format line has a trailing '/',
cd to the path and enter interactive mode. Fixes [bin/3011], albiet
requiring the user to help ftp in determining the operation.
Other changes:
* '-P port' works for normal ftp, and is the default for all classic style
auto-fetch transfers and for ftp URLs that don't specify the port.
(previously it would just work for the first xfer.)
* Some code moved into separated files along logical divisions.
* Editing and completion can be compiled out with -DSMALLFTP.
