83556 - FTP Does not produce RAW Content

Status: VERIFIED FIXED

(Core Graveyard :: Networking: FTP, defect)

Description

[Doug Turner (:dougt)]

Embedders may/will want to use raw content if using ftp.  Current ftp only can
output html-indexed or html.  This is unfortunate since it may be easier for
embedders to directly use ls-format.

packbool's had problems with the pref api.  I didn't want to cast when using them.

thanks.
