in reply to Re^2: "Net::FTP" missing "mget"
in thread "Net::FTP" missing "mget"

A few suggestions...

FYI: the FTP protocol has no "mget" concept, clients typically impliment it using the NLST command...

NAME LIST (NLST)
This command causes a directory listing to be sent from server to user site. The pathname should specify a directory or other system-specific file group descriptor; a null argument implies the current directory. The server will return a stream of names of files and no other information. The data will be transferred in ASCII or EBCDIC type over the data connection as valid pathname strings separated by <CRLF> or <NL>. (Again the user must ensure that the TYPE is correct.) This command is intended to return information that can be used by a program to further process the files automatically. For example, in the implementation of a "multiple get" function.
