New submission from Matthew H. McKenzie <gith...@swellhunter.org>:
Lib/ftplib.py function retrlines
Inspired by documentation the following writes a file without line-endings:
from ftplib import FTP
ftp=FTP()
ftp.connect('hostname')
ftp.login('user','xxxxxxxx')
ftp.sendcmd('pasv')
with open('crap2.txt', 'w') as fp:
ftp.retrlines('RETR crap.txt', fp.write)
Code goes to pains to slice off the line endings, and then print_line does not
add them back? Apologies if this has been covered before, or I am not following
the documentation correctly. Not going to suggest a fix as there may be a
reason it is like this.
For RETR.
For ascii
