- _________________________________________________________________
- Abort an FTP 'get', 'put' or 'dir' operation in progress. If
- issued without an argument, the current session is aborted. (This
- command works only on FTP sessions).
-
- When receiving a file, 'abort' simply resets the data connection;
- the next incoming data packet will generate a TCP RST (reset)
- response to clear the remote server.
-
- When sending a file, 'abort' sends a premature end-of-file.
-
- Note that in both cases 'abort' will leave a partial copy of the
- file on the destination machine; this copy must be removed
- manually if it is unwanted.
