using the plain command line ftp client, you can do it only IF the ftp
server supports something like tar and/or gzip on the fly. then you can
simply do a:

get dirname.tar or dirname.tgz

and the ftp server will tar or tar+gzip the directory and transfer that

but with some other client (like mc's ftp client or gftp), you can simply
select the directory and copy/download it.

[ i have another question, it may sound crazy but ......, can i mount a
[ ftp directory?

not in the conventional sense, but with some other software you can (e.g.
mc's ftp feature).
