Description:
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
This plugin will allow you to do inline FTP download of files on the net,
without the need to call an external FTP program
(except FTPMount, which is transparent).
It will distinguish between a directory and a file, and act accordingly.

Features:
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
o Fast reaction, since FTPMount does cache dirs.
o Asyncron download (thanks to Aweb),
  you can continue browsing while it downloads!
o Brings up a requester that ask what you want to save as.
o GUI progress meter (thanks to WBCopy - now in English),
  shows you expected time!
o The URL is saved as a filecomment for later use!
o Works with AWeb 2.0/1.6/2.1
  (or any other AWeb that can use an arexx FTP plugin)
o Has a "normal" filelisting with a layout that look good on Aminet.
o Displays Aminet .readme and other text files correctly.
o Servername shown as title, directory path above filelist.
o And the obligatory PARENT button is here.
o FTPD is the best FTP download script for AWeb ;-)

Requirements:
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
o FTPMount version 0.8 (or newer) must be installed and running,
  available on Aminet: FTPMount-1.0.lha  comm/tcp   109K Mounts FTP sites
o WBCopy (aminet/util/cli/WBCopy.lha) - Does progress meters - (included)

Installation:
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
1) Copy entire AWebFTPD directory to AWeb plugin dir,
   or replace old files if updating from an older version.
2) Set the following settings:
   (AWeb 1.6/2.1)
   ----------------------------------------------
   Network Settings: Programs (ftp)
   Command: sys:rexxc/rx
   Arguments: Plugins/AWebFTPD/FTPD.rexx %h %f %n
   ----------------------------------------------

   (AWeb 2.0)
   ----------------------------------------------------
   Network 3: External Programs (ftp)
   Command: sys:rexxc/rx
   Arguments: Plugins/AWebFTPD/FTPD.rexx "%s" "%s" "%s"
   ----------------------------------------------------

3) Put WBCopy in the C: directory
4) Set your downloadpath at the beginning of the script!

Note:
¯¯¯¯¯
This script is in some places based on Josef Falkner's AWebFTP script,
hope you don't mind Josef ;-)
WBCopy included with FTPD is NOT the original WBCopy,
the original had German text, I changed all text to English.
Hope you don't mind Bastian ;-)

FTPD is not PD, it is Bloodware.
Donate some blood at your local hospital ;-)

This Version:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
v3.0 - Major update!
       Removed a few bugs from v2.2, mostly screen name bugs!
       Any leading/ending " (quotes) are removed in names/paths,
       any leading/ending   (blanks) are removed in names/paths,
       this may cause files with blanks/spaces to not be found,
       since spaces in a filename is a No-No, this is not a problem!
       Removed some code that wasn't really needed!
       Added normal version string!
       Now FTPD also works with AWeb 2.0,
       (or any other AWeb that can use an arexx FTP plugin).
       And to top it all off, a proper filemanager interface:
       The filelisting have become "normal", like we are used too!
       FTPD now has a PARENT button!
       The server name is shown as the title!
       The directory path is show above the filelist!
       Layout made to look good on Aminet!
