Can you just download them without the extension, then from a command prompt, 
just do a "rename * *.txt"?

Subject: FTP MGET

I'm trying to pull an entire PDS to work station. FTP MGET seems the way to go, 
but my first effort yielded files with just the member name as file name. I 
want member.txt so that I can look at them conveniently. Can't get anything to 
work. Last try was this. Each operand is surrounded by blanks.

ftp> mget -i *.* *.txt
No members found.
** is not preceded or followed by a period or blank.
** is not preceded or followed by a period or blank.
200 Representation type is Ascii NonPrint
Cannot find list of remote files.
