[REBOL] Re: Reading empty directories via FTP error

Hi Max,
> but then, how do all ftp softwares fix this.
The error i know in parsing files with LIST can be fixed with a slight change
in the parse rules of the ftp handler.
I think that commercial products make fine tuning of the rules they use to
parse list output. It is only the task to try some different ftp servers for
different OS ;-)
Also the Rebol FTP code try to use 2 different set of parse rules with the
same list output, if the first fails, it tries the second.
> This is going back a while, but isn't there a ftp command which returns a
list of commands supported by the server? I may be grosely in error.
Yes it should be: HELP.
