The standard way to get a file listing is to use the 'ls -R' command which will get you a Recursive directory listing . Any FTP file server will have a file named something like 'ls-lR.gz' which is basically a recursive listing of everything on the server so people just download and unzip that instead of slowly browsing the entire server. Play with that command . Here's an example. Enjoy! -- Mario
