I was able to obtain a book my Herb Tyson titled "Navigating the
Internet with OS/2 Warp". It explains the command line ftp.exe
reasonably well.
The one procedure that I can't find reference to is something that while
using the MGET command, ftp.exe receives the files then deletes it on
the host machine. Something like MOVE *.*. I suppose I could download
a*.*, then del a*.*, and so on through the alphabet and 0-9, but I was
hoping for a "cleaner" way of going this.
Anyone know if there is a third party ftp command line utility that will
support a MOVE like command?
Thanks,
