In  1993  Mark  Tomlinson  <mark@garden.equinox.gen.nz> and Geoff McCaughan
<geoff@equinox.gen.nz> created a direct port of the BSD standard code FTP.

This port is usable in a secure Enviroment such as a BBS and is able to log
all  taken actions.  For further information please refer to the readmes in
the  original  archive  ATCPTELNETFTP.LHA in comm/tcp.  In this archive you
can also finde the original sources.

After using an few hours, i saw that there was a bug at the option parsing.
After a while the FTP does not accept its own options anymore, allthough it
was started by only the same batch.

This  Updates fixes this Bug and furthermore it contains an version of FTP,
which  allows  MGET  transmissions  additionally to the GET, which was only
allowed by the original FTP.

I  would  like  to thank Andreas Winkelmann and Oliver Doering, who spent a
few  hours  to find all the Bugs (including linker bugs of SAS-C that makes
the new compiled ftp crashing in my AmBoS BBS enviroment) and made this new
version possible to use in my BBS and of course in others BBS too.
