Description
The purpose of ncftp is to provide a powerful and flexible
interface to the Internet standard File Transfer Protocol. It is intended to
replace the stock ftp program that comes with the system. Some of the cooler
features include progress meters, filename completion, command-line editing,
background processing, auto-resume downloads, bookmarking, cached directory
listings, host redialing, working with firewalls and proxies, downloading entire
directory trees, etc., etc. The ncftp distribution comes with the useful utility
programs ncftpget(1) and ncftpput(1) which were designed to do command-line
FTP. In particular, they are very handy for shell scripts.
