Package: netstd Version: 2.05-1 The ftp command, at least in a xterm, does not let one stop mget:
ftp> mget x* mget xarclock_1.0-1.deb? Continue with mget? mget xautolock_pl10-2.deb? Continue with mget? mget xaw3d_1.2a-5.deb? Continue with mget? mget xbase_3.1.2-9.deb? Continue with mget? mget xbmbrowser_4.2-2.deb? Continue with mget? mget xcolors_1.5-2.deb? Continue with mget? mget xcompat_3.1.2-4.deb? Continue with mget? mget xcontrib_3.1.2-1.deb? Continue with mget? mget xdaliclock_2.06-1.deb? Continue with mget? mget xdevel_3.1.2-4.deb? Continue with mget? mget xearth_1.0-11.deb? Continue with mget? mget xfnt100_3.1.2-6.deb? [etc...] After having displayed 'Continue with mget?' it gets to the next file asking, so there's no chance to answer no. (In the example above, I hit C-c on each line). Yves. --
