Batch Ftp 261 As

Batch FTP is a script for Peter Lewis' Anarchie program. It allows a user to batch-download a list of files (such as one generated from a new or recent files list) from an FTP server. Before you dismiss this script with others of it's kind, read on...it has some features I haven't see elsewhere. Features: --------- * Handy: Files to be downloaded don't need a full path. You can specify one base path that will apply to all files in the list. * Smart: Automatically retries minor errors. * Customizable: Remembers the base paths for up to 4 of your favorite sites. * Easy: Options to use the preferred info-mac or umich sites specified by Internet Config Version History: ---------------- 2.61 - Public Release 12/25/96. Fixed bug introduced by using "geturl." Should be fully compatible with Anarchie 2.0.1 now. 2.60 - Updated BFTP to work better with Anarchie 2.0: * Uses "geturl" instead of "fetch url" because "fetch url" doesn't name files correctly under Anarchie 2.0. * Handles Anarchie's new window naming scheme (BFTP 1.6 would not close windows when retrying under Anarchie 2.0) * Added the ability to retry in errors that require user intervention.
