First of all, I want to thank you for providing ftp access to Mr. Fish's quite
large library of freely distributable software.  (Because second I'm going to
complain ;)

It seems like your ftp server has some broken software.  Specifically, ls
doesn't recognise any flags.  Also, it doesn't seem to understand wildcards at
all (when used with the 'mget' command).

It'd be swell if you could fix that (especially the wildcards).
