Actually... unix.  I need to tranfer my files from one server to another.

The files are in subdirectories of a main directory.

I'm currently tranfering them directory at a time... but I'd like to be able
to tranfer just the main directory, the files inside it, the subdirectories
inside it... and the files inside those subdirectories.

I'm using the mget *.* and mput *.* commands. I was just wondering if there
was an easier way.

Which command line?

If it were Unix etc. then just do this:

rede: {2} % man ftp


FTP(1)                       BSD Reference Manual
FTP(1)

NAME
     ftp - ARPANET file transfer program

SYNOPSIS
     ftp [-v] [-d] [-i] [-n] [-g] [host]

DESCRIPTION.....

And there you go.

Win95 has a command line ftp.  From my NT box:
C:\WINNT\Profiles\Administrator.000\Desktop\code\code\ch6>ftp
ftp> help
Commands may be abbreviated.  Commands are:

!               delete          literal         prompt          send
?               debug           ls              put             status
append          dir             mdelete         pwd             trace
ascii           disconnect      mdir            quit            type
bell            get             mget            quote           user
binary          glob            mkdir           recv           verbose
bye             hash            mls             remotehelp cd
            help            mput            rename close           lcd
            open            rmdir ftp>
I recall that 95 had the same.

And then of course I would really look into the LWP module (in Perl).
