Short: FTP Get client (FTP files from a shell prompt or script)
Author: rakey@cnetbbs.net (Ray Akey)
Uploader: rakey@cnetbbs.net (Ray Akey)

This is a freebie from Ray A. Akey (AKA developer for ZenMetal Software).
It is a simple AmigaDOS shell executable that is used to FTP a file
from a remote FTP site.
Program argument template:
U=USER/K,P=PASS/K,O=PORT/K,V=DOPASV/S,Q=QUIET/S,L=LOCALDIR/K,D=DELETE/S,HOSTFILE/K/A/F
U=USER : the username to use when logging in (default: anonymous).
P=PASS : the password to use when logging in (default: getclient@www.cnetbbs.net).
O=PORT : the remote port to connect.
V=DOPASV : do PASV transfer (useful for FTPing from behind firewalls)
Q=QUIET : suppress shell output.
L=LOCALDIR: make the given local machine directory current.
D=DELETE : causes GetClient to delete from remote the files it gets.
HOSTFILE : the site, port and file to get. (port default = 21)
NOTE: As an alternate, the U and P arguments can be specified in the
HOSTFILE argument in usual URL form. ftp:// is optional.

1) GetClient us.aminet.net/pub/aminet/comm/www/GetClient11.lha
