This perhaps is a little off topic, but I have built a useful gadget with a
field that holds the .mt script a button that uploads the script to the site
(HOST, USER and PASS are stored in fields on the same card) into the cgi bin
and another button which runs the cgi with "get" and the results posted to
another field on the same card...various card hold different cgi's for seven
different sites... the only caveat is setting permissions. Fortunately I can
FTP in and CHMOD the file to 755 and once that is done, happily, even if you
overwrite the cgi script with a new iteration/revision...it keeps its
permissions... So, now obviously the very efficient thing would be to upload
the cgi... "build_lesson.cgi" and, while the socket is still open (an old
script I got from Andu) set permissions to that file. What would be the
commands to do that, from with the xtalk ftp script?

( if anyone thinks they could use such a gadget...email off list, it's not
polished enough yet to post to contributors...)
