If you've got plenty of room on the hard-drive then you might want to look at getting the Amiga GNU port, this has a more recent version of ncftp (which handles paging properly) amongst other things. Personally I use ncftp most of the time... For GUI clients there's SimpleFTP (on Aminet - a reasonable mirror of which is on ftp.demon.co.uk in /pub/mirrors/aminet - first get the INDEX.Z file) though there are plenty of others. And then there's FTPMount, with which you can mount any FTP server under FTP:server.name, and then of course just use Workbench, a shell, or your favourite file/dir util. -- <URL:http://www.pierrot.co.uk/> Team AMIGA Tilting at windmills hurts you more than the windmills.
