Thanks,

Yes; I found ftp_rawlist eventually, but I still haven't found a definition of 
the return
code, though I think I know most of it.

I guess that even a null file will hve some length?  I will probably use the 
leading 'd'
in the return code to test for directories..

(And I spent a long time trying to work out how 'drwxr-xr-x 2 riordan riordan 
512 Jul 31
06:40 cgi-bin' could contain lots of spaces, before I remembered that, as a 
result of one
of the weirder design decisions,  HTML suppresses trailing spaces.)
