Not to discredit its author(s), but yes, I feel the same way about Net::FTP. It's a really neat tool to do trivial FTP, but when it comes to codes which must handle errors in some elaborate fashion, then you don't get much.

For anything like that, you just have to write your own version. You may even want to copy Net::FTP and Net::Cmd and hack its internals.

.... and yes, I have done the above to get more useful data. It's not exactly pleasant :-)

Once again, though, it's a neat tool. Just not what you want to use for this
