mget * (obtein files from current directory but not the files form sub-directories)

Hello,

Using the instruction mget (within ftp) and with "Interactive mode off", I want to get all files from directory (DirAA), but not the files in sub-directories.

The files names don't follow any defined rule, so they can be just letters without (.) period

Directory structure example:
$ find DirAA -name "*"
DirAA
DirAA/FILE_AA_01
DirAA/FILE_AA_02
DirAA/DirBB
DirAA/DirBB/FILE_BB_01

ftp> mget *
local: DirBB/FILE_BB_01 remote: DirBB/FILE_BB_01
DirBB/FILE_BB_01: No such file or directory


With the instruction "mget *" the (* asterisk) is expanded also for the files on the sub-directories. The files from the sub-directories are not copied, but will originate errors on the log.

So anyone knows if with “mget *” there is a way to get only the files on the current directory, not the files on the sub-directories?
