But you possably want the transfer to get all files without you needeing to
type "y" to all the questions, type;
prompt
it should return with
Interactive mode off.
now type;
mget *.gz
If you wish to see how the transfer is doing use the hash command before
the other commands.
hash
prompt
mget *.gz
one hash mark is 1024 bytes.
If you use ncftp the hash command is not supported, ncftp shows the file
tranfer rate and progress in percentages on the command line during the
transfer.
