This is a brief description of the new features and fixes added to
lukemftp-1.5 since the release of lukemftp-1.4. As always, the manual
page (src/ftp.cat1) is the place to look for complete descriptions.
* Add new commands:
features list remote features supported by servers
mlsd machine parseable directory listing
mlst machine parseable file listing
remopts set options on remote features
These require support in the remote server for the ftp extensions
described in RFC 2389 and draft-ietf-ftpext-mlst-11.
* Fix support for the --program-prefix and --program-suffix configure
options.
---
This is a brief description of the new features and fixes added to
lukemftp-1.4 since the release of lukemftp-1.3. As always, the manual
page (src/ftp.cat1) is the place to look for complete descriptions.
* Fix compilation problems on various non 4.4BSD derived platforms which
support IPv6, and on Linux systems which have strdup() as a macro.
* During auto-fetch, don't attempt to autologin a second time if the first
time failed.
---
This is a brief description of the new features and fixes added to
lukemftp-1.3 since the release of lukemftp-1.2. As always, the manual
page (src/ftp.cat1) is the place to look for complete descriptions.
* The `ls' command now uses the `LIST' directive instead of `NLST',
in order to be compatible with RFC959.
* Add fget command, which reads a list of filenames to retrieve from
the given file.
* Add support for uploading files on the command-line with `ftp -u'.
* Various fixes to the IPv6 support.

This is a brief description of the new features and fixes added to
lukemftp-1.2 since the release of lukemftp-1.1. As always, the manual
page (src/ftp.cat1) is the place to look for complete descriptions.
* During remote completion, only send ``NLST'' instead of ``NLST .''
when reading the list of files from the remote server; some servers
don't like the trailing `.'.
* Support a leading ``[user@]'' for ``[user@]host[:][path]'' auto-fetches
and ``[user@]host'' connections.
* Always compile in support for setting the type of service on transfers.
Should speed up transfers on Linux systems.
* Improve performance of non-rate-limited transfers.
* Work around ftp servers that aren't Y2K compliant in returning the
modification time of a file.
* Update the libedit library to support automatic and magic margins,
allowing ftp's rprompt to move an extra character to the right.

This is a brief description of the new features and fixes added to
lukemftp-1.1 since the release of lukemftp-1.0. As always, the manual
page (src/ftp.cat1) is the place to look for complete descriptions.
* Implemented `set prompt' and `set rprompt', which allow you to
configure the prompt and right side prompt (respectively).
Some tcsh(1) style `%' escapes are supported, including
%. %c %/ %m %M %n
* Implemented restarting of file:/// and non-proxied http:// URLs
(using -R)
* Correctly parse remote ports given as numbers that don't appear in
the services(5) database.
* Prevent a couple of minor memory leaks
* Add missing compilation setting for SOCKS
