* in autofetch mode, don't retry a file if the connection failed - skip it
and move to the next file. [bin/3051, Matt Green]
* only print error messages from SIZE or MDTM if the user used 'size' or
'modt' (respectively). prevents extraneous warnings during normal transfers
when connected to a site which doesn't support these (behaviour prior to
last commit), but still allows error feedback to specific user requests
for this info (which the last commit broke).
* 'account': only accept one optional argument
* if invoked as pftp, default to passive mode on (from FreeBSD)
* remove leading '0 ' in progress bar - looked ugly
* use warn instead of perror
* use strncpy when src isn't known to have safe length
* remglob(): use mkstemp() to prevent symlink games, and don't override
_PATH_TMP, use it as the prefix to the temp file
* implement 'progress bar/meter' (inspired by ncftp). use 'progress' to
toggle on. it will display current file size to 5 digits, automatically
determining suffix (up to 16384 P (petabytes) == 2^64).
* 'ls' now uses NLST (unadorned listing), a la older ftp clients. 'dir'
still does LIST (long listing). idea from John Nemeth <jnemeth@cue.bc.ca>
bug fixes:
* return first line of reply in reply_string[] from getreply(), instead
of last line. This fixes [bin/741] (parsing of SYST), and also means
that SIZE and MDTM messages will be parsed correctly if they're longer
than 1 line.
* parse URL-style auto-ftps that have no filename correctly
(e.g, ftp://host, ftp://host/, ftp://host/dir/). pointed out by
Jaromir Dolecek <dolecek@saruman.ics.muni.cz>
* pass the correct size array in 2nd arg of utimes() when setting the
modification time
friedman@gnu.ai.mit.edu (Noah Friedman) made to his modified ftp:
- implement "lpwd" - local pwd
- implement "preserve" - toggle preserving of file modification
times on retrieved files
- allow for explicit "on" or "off" arg to toggle commands
- "exit" synonym for "quit", "msend" synonym for "mput"
- in confirmation mode, allow 'a' (yes to rest of current command),
and 'p' (turn off prompt mode, as if 'prompt off' was done,
effective immediately)
- "modtime" returns time formatted as localtime, not GMT
Bug fixes:
- check for extraneous args on commands
- cleanup const usage, line formatting
- create 0 length temporary file in remglob() to prevent symlink games
(from OpenBSD)
- check length of filename of ~/.netrc (from OpenBSD)
- don't echo 'ACCT' parameter when debugging (a la 'PASS')
- Fix checking of directory access for "/foo", the parent
directory is "/", not "" (from FreeBSD)
- remove trailing whitespace on lines
- add any missing NetBSD tags
- cleanups to man page, includinging sorting options description
feature additions:
- variable sized hash marks (from [bin/683], but done in the hash command
as an optional arg)
- more user-friendly transfer time printing (from FreeBSD, with mods)
- '-p' command line option to jump into PASV mode (closes [bin/2857],
but with an option rather than checking argv[0])
- SIGINFO support for printing xfer stats when sending/receiving requests
- '-P port' for changing the port to connect to (from thorpej@netbsd.org)
- '-a': bypass normal login, and try anonymous login (from OpenBSD
via thorpej)
- autofetch files via url (ftp://...) or "classic" (host:/file)
(from OpenBSD via thorpej)
- 'ftp' synonymous with 'open' (from FreeBSD)
