Folks, I really appreciate the kudos. Thanks!

But if everyone who finds this script useful was to post a thank-you note, we will get a lengthy thread with little content.

So let's keep the thread useful. If you have a question, suggestion, bug report, etc, go ahead and post. But no more thank-you's. I know it's a cool script.

But I will add a personal note: No one will benefit from this effort as much as I did. I learned a lot as I solved the problems that I encountered writing this script. What's more, I too wanted a recursive ftp script. And not too surprisingly, this one meets my needs perfectly.
