Our GUIs are just really, really good at masking that. (Kinda like how Windows Explorer opens zip archives as if they were folders, even though they very much aren't.)(05-08-2021 08:33 PM)BruceH Wrote: On the latest Macos (Big Sur), pasting "ftp://ftp.hp.com/pub/calculators/Prime/" into the address bar of Safari pops up an authentication dialog asking for a username and password to be entered or to connect as a guest. Choose guest and the ftp site is mounted as a network drive, and a Finder window opened. Files can be downloaded by drag and drop. |
