Re: FTP to/from IBM i issues

I like FTP if only because it's easier for
MGET and MPUTs than a GUI interface, and especially when I'm downloading
single files with large unique file names/paths. Copy and paste. :)

I take it you mean you like the FTP client program, rather than the
FTP protocol.

You should have a look at WinSCP. It gives you the choice of GUI or
command-line. If you use the GUI, it feels a lot like FileZilla. The
command-line interface has `get` and `put` which both support
wildcards (and multiple files). So it's just as easy to use as
whatever FTP client you're used to, but it supports all the various
transport protocols.
