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...

to contain the remote working directory.
- add `set prompt', a user configurable prompt. (defaults to `ftp> ').
the following escape characters a la tcsh(1) are supported: %/, %m,
%M, and %n.
- add global var `username'; used by prompt code
- fix a couple of minor memory leaks
- bump version
- 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.
* simplify main loop (don't need `top' variable any more)
* use a struct sockaddr_in6.sin6_addr for the result from inet_pton(),
rather than u_char buf[16]
* add a few more comments
* confirm(): move from util.c to cmds.c. display mnemonic string in its prompt.
add support for `q' (terminate current xfer), `?' (show help list)
* in various signal handlers, output a linefeed only if fromatty.
* if fgets(stdin) returned NULL (i.e, EOF), clearerr(stdin) because you don't
want future fgets to fail. this is not done for the fgets() in the main
command loop, since ftp will quit at that point.
* unless ftp is invoked with -a, don't retain the anonftp setting between
hosts (`ftp somehost:' sets anonftp, but you don't want that to `stick'
if you close that connection and open a new one).
don't save the signal mask on some foreign systems.
* ensure signal handlers don't use stdio and do reset errno if they
don't exit with siglongjmp()
* use a common SIGINT handler for {send,recv}request()
prints out info if bytes > 0). only set the handler if SIGINFO is defined
* hijack SIGQUIT to be the same as SIGINFO (foreign ports have this, and it's
annoying to have SIGQUIT dump core on netbsd when it prints info on other
systems)
* in {recv,send}request(), factor a lot of duplicated code out into a
`cleanup' section at the end
* rework shell() a bit
* implement xsignal_restart(), which only sets the SA_RESTART flag if
specifically requested
* xsignal() is now a wrapper to xsignal_restart(). INFO, USR1, USR2 and WINCH
are restartable, ALRM, INT, PIPE and QUIT are not.
* improve getreply()'s timeout code to take advantage of the above.
other changes:
* improve wording of how globbing works for `classic' URLs (host:path).
suggested by John Refling <johnr@imageworks.com> in relation to PRs
[bin/8519] and [bin/8520]
* always compile in the `edit' command even if NO_EDITCOMPLETE defined.
it's just a no-op in the latter case, which is more consistent to
the users.
* always compile in about: support (i.e, remove NO_ABOUT).
i'm entitled to some vanity in this program...
* clean up some whitespace
the disabled state can be overridden by toggling epsv4.
(I got sick of the errors about EPSV not being supported on almost
every server I connect to. This way we retain support for epsv4, but
it's not so whiny after the first failure...)
should be in host order. found/fixed by Matthias Pfaller <leo@dachau.marco.de>
* parse_url(): improve checking of portnum, and add an extra argument to pass
back the parsed portnum to the caller (reduces a bit of code duplication)
* Move the KAME/WIDE copyrights after the BSD/TNFi ones. Since there was
significantly less code added under the former, it's only fair on the latter.
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
add lots of comments about how to size up the buffers, and add extra
checks to hopefully ensure that there won't be an overflow (unless
someone modifies the length of the sprintf()s).
* as part of the above, slightly rework the way the `*' bar is calculated.
also fixes a display bug when > 160 stars were needed to be printed.
the maximum progress bar width at this time is 256.
* remove some code that checks the port that was #if 0-ed out as part of the
ipv6 migration; it's not going to be used again.
* document the above three commands
* rototill the way the sndbuf and rcvbuf work. remove resetsockbufsize()
* use the appropriate socket buffer size as the size of the buffer that
the read()/write() loops use. speeds up things in some cases.
this is mainly for (hypothetical) ftp server which disconnect clients
that use EPSV/EPRT. I've never seen any ftp server like this, but
epsv4 command may be of use when such an ftp server is found.
features:
---------
* transfer rate throttling with the new `rate' command. syntax:
rate direction [max [incr]]
where direction is `all', `get' or `put'.
if max is not supplied, the current settings are displayed.
if max is supplied, then transfers in the given direction will
be throttled to this value.
if incr is supplied, the increment for the `on-the-fly' scaling
will be set to that, otherwise `1024' is used.
currently implemented for binary get, binary put, and url fetches.
not yet supported for ascii get or put, or local file copies.
* on-the-fly scaling of the throttle based on signals:
- SIGUSR1 raises the throttle rate by the increment for that direction
- SIGUSR2 lowers the throttle rate by the increment for that direction
* -T dir,max[,incr] option to set rate from the command line
* `k', `m', `g' suffix support for bytecounts in the `hash', `rate',
`rcvbuf' and `sndbuf' commands)
bug fixes and code mods:
------------------------
* fix up ftp_login() so that ruserpass() is always called, even for
command-line url fetches.
* implement strsuftoi(), which parses a given number into a int with
suffix support. replaces getsockbufsize()
* implement parserate(), which does the argv parsing for -T and rate
* save and restore errno in signal handlers (may not be necessary, but
it doesn't hurt)
notes:
------
the rate command has had reasonable testing, but I'd like feedback
if it doesn't do the right thing, especially from people on slower
(i.e, modem) links.
I haven't tested the rate throttle against a http server which does
`transfer-encoding: chunked' because I couldn't find a server to
test against.
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.
the latter only seemed to work for TIS Gauntlet and not TIS fwtk.
thanks to simonb@netbsd.org for testing this. fixes [bin/5556].
* if EOF (e.g, ^D) is entered at a username/password/account prompt which
happens to use fgets(), exit the login rather than treating EOF as CR.
* don't use the comma operator where separate statements are valid
* always use snprintf to copy stuff into malloced buffers, just in case
typos creep in and mean that the buffer ends up being overflowed
* set setvbuf(ttyout, NULL, _IOLBF, 0) and remove a bunch of fflush(ttyout).
* use fwrite() instead of write() for progressmeter (don't intermix stdio
with non stdio ops)
* in autofetch mode, don't attempt to 'cd /' on first xfer (only on
subsequent xfers), as some ftp daemons don't permit that.
[noted by dbj@netbsd.org].
XXX: code could be smarter (but a lot more complicated to boot); this
works for now.
* 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'
* parse Last-Modified: HTTP headers for date, and change time of
retrieved file if parsing succeeded
* support file:/// and file://localhost/ URLs
* in url_get(), re-write byte moving code to consistently use fread()
and fwrite(), and check errors at end with ferror()
* add about:* easter-egg (#ifndef SMALL :-)
which in turn can allow the use of larger TCP windows. This is a work in
progress; there is not yet support for specifying global defaults or
user prefrences on a host/network basis.
* 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.
doesn't use garbage for the username. from "Soren S. Jorvang" <soren@t.dk>
in [bin/4559]
* use in_port_t for ports, and USHRT_MAX instead of 0xffff
(from millert@openbsd.org)
* use `NULL' instead of `(.... *)0' where appropriate.
