I'm trying to figure out a way to use wget/curl to grab a simple
listing of files without grabbing the files.  Think of it as a remote
"ls" via HTTP.

I think this is only possible if the server is configured to allow
directory listings.  Most are not.  And for many of those that are, they
would return the default page for the directory (index.html, etc) if
it exists.

If you don't have control of the server in question, you may not have
any choices beyond FTP/SSH.
