Well, I could, but why would you use ncftp when lftp is actually more feature complete and much better overall. (ncftp is not open source actually).
If there's a good reason you might convince me to do the extra work.
Well, this came up because perl CPAN wants to use ncftpget to download files, and it couldn't find it on my system... does lftp contain a functional equivalent?
It includes lftpget. It seems strange to me that CPAN is using ncftp and does not look for any alternatives. You may have to look into that first.
In any other event, let me know and I'll package it.
