Hi,

I'm not sure where the line between TRAMP and Ange-FTP is, so maybe I need
to report this elsewhere - if so, please let me know.

I'm having a problem with using mkdir or make-directory on an FTP host when
the directory already exists. If you give t for the parents parameter to
mkdir, it should silently ignore it when the directory already exists. This
works for local directories as well as remote ones using ssh/sftp. However,
using ftp, it throws an error when the directory exists.

So, for instance:

(mkdir "/path/to/existing/directory" t)                      ; Does nothing
(mkdir "ssh:[email protected]:/path/to/existing/directory" t) ; Does nothing
(mkdir "ftp:[email protected]:/path/to/existing/directory" t) ; Throws an
error

Any advice appreciated,
Matthew
