Short: Mounts FTP sites as part of a filesystem Author: evan@ucc.gu.uwa.edu.au Uploader: evan@ucc.gu.uwa.edu.au Version: 0.8 Type: comm/tcp Replaces: comm/tcp/FTPMount.lha FTPMount0.8 is a minor upgrade to 0.7. There are a few bug fixes and a few minor improvements done in an afternoon, and only done because they were simple and would really help some people. Changes from 0.7 to 0.8: + FTPMount no longer pretends to support the ExamineFH packet. There was a problem with ExamineFH which caused crashes related to the fact that the file handle was not in the position in the packet that documentation indicated that it was. I couldn't work out what to do about this, so it returns an ACTION_NOT_KNOWN error instead. Most programs should be able to cope transparently with this. + "//" is legal at the beginning of an FTP: path (for pseudo-URL support), thus FTP://ftp.netnet.net/pub/aminet/RECENT is a legitimate path name. + Directory listings are stored in the same order they are retrieved, so for example, a copy with a wildcard will copy in standard sorting order rather than reversed. + Case insensitivity now picks an exact match over a case insensitive match. Thus if a site (eg Aminet/RECENT/recent ... Grrr) has two entries with the same name, but different cases, you can always distinguish the one you want by typing the name exactly. + If there is no icon for a site, the tooltypes will be read from the Default.info icon. NB: this doesn't mean that the Default icon specifies the default value for tooltypes! + The "MESSAGES" ToolType has been added to allow disabling of either banner messages or all messages. Please note that banner messages for public FTP sites are generally "Conditions of use" which should be read and understood by users, so I strongly recommend against putting "MESSAGES=ERROR" or "MESSAGES=NONE" in the Default icon, or in fact for any public ftp site. + The "PORT" ToolType has been added to allow connection to ports other than the standard FTP port (21). + FTPMount now handles file names with spaces. ============================= Archive contents ============================= Original Packed Ratio Date Time Name -------- ------- ----- --------- -------- ------------- 632 275 56.4% 10-Dec-95 17:49:50 FTPMount-0.8.info 0 0 0.0% 10-Dec-95 17:51:34 + 0 0 0.0% 10-Dec-95 17:51:36 + 0 0 0.0% 10-Dec-95 17:51:46 + 0 0 0.0% 10-Dec-95 17:51:50 + 0 0 0.0% 10-Dec-95 17:51:54 + 0 0 0.0% 10-Dec-95 17:52:06 + 0 0 0.0% 10-Dec-95 17:52:10 + 0 0 0.0% 10-Dec-95 17:52:14 + 3090 1303 57.8% 10-Dec-95 14:24:10 +FTPMount.catalog 632 279 55.8% 10-Dec-95 18:00:06 +DOSDrivers.info 118 100 15.2% 07-Aug-95 15:45:38 +FTP 481 245 49.0% 07-Aug-95 15:43:46 +FTP.info 8401 2840 66.1% 10-Dec-95 17:55:42 +FTPMount.cd 19918 7767 61.0% 10-Dec-95 17:59:40 +FTPMount.guide 469 227 51.5% 10-Dec-95 18:00:16 +FTPMount.guide.info 632 284 55.0% 10-Dec-95 17:51:24 +Hosts.info 646 298 53.8% 06-Sep-95 14:23:34 +@localhost.info 770 395 48.7% 06-Sep-95 14:23:10 +aminet.info 664 310 53.3% 10-Dec-95 17:53:28 +Default.info 665 316 52.4% 06-Sep-95 14:23:40 +evan@localhost.info 646 300 53.5% 06-Sep-95 14:23:26 +localhost.info 637 290 54.4% 06-Sep-95 14:23:54 +max.physics.sunysb.edu.info 648 299 53.8% 06-Sep-95 14:23:48 +plaza.aarnet.edu.au.info 671 318 52.6% 06-Sep-95 14:23:18 +wuarchive.info 9161 2644 71.1% 16-Aug-95 14:30:30 +Install 677 337 50.2% 07-Aug-95 18:35:06 +Install.info 59436 27314 54.0% 10-Dec-95 17:46:06 +FTPMount-Handler 53748 12530 76.6% 10-Dec-95 16:48:44 +connect.c 761 353 53.6% 06-Sep-95 15:24:28 +connect.h 808 389 51.8% 06-Sep-95 14:14:00 +evtypes.h 1002 508 49.3% 06-Sep-95 14:13:54 +ftp.h 3009 1003 66.6% 10-Dec-95 16:45:12 +ftpinfo.c 1056 485 54.0% 10-Dec-95 16:35:34 +ftpinfo.h 1430 636 55.5% 10-Dec-95 14:43:22 +globals.h 11360 2660 76.5% 10-Dec-95 15:36:56 +listen.c 18171 3016 83.4% 06-Sep-95 15:47:10 +local.c 227 162 28.6% 06-Sep-95 14:14:00 +local.h 37960 9562 74.8% 10-Dec-95 14:38:16 +request.c 1200 560 53.3% 06-Sep-95 14:13:52 +request.h 110 105 4.5% 10-Dec-95 17:06:12 +SCOPTIONS 50612 9306 81.6% 10-Dec-95 15:44:34 +site.c 1676 809 51.7% 10-Dec-95 14:15:56 +site.h 1261 374 70.3% 10-Aug-95 17:27:50 +smakefile 4771 1565 67.1% 10-Dec-95 14:11:46 +split.c 371 247 33.4% 06-Sep-95 14:13:56 +split.h 14865 4145 72.1% 06-Sep-95 14:13:22 +startup.c 6007 1965 67.2% 10-Dec-95 15:41:36 +strings.h 37404 8594 77.0% 06-Sep-95 14:13:12 +tcp.c 2028 957 52.8% 06-Sep-95 14:14:02 +tcp.h 2217 679 69.3% 06-Sep-95 14:14:04 +verify.h 10857 1638 84.9% 06-Sep-95 14:14:04 +verify_code.h -------- ------- ----- --------- -------- 371905 108389 70.8% 10-Dec-95 22:57:56 52 files
