While we're on this, can anyone get lftp to list a short listing when doing 'ls'? I try ls -1 to give me the file names without the other stats and it is ignored in lftp but of course, it works great under the shell. Sometimes I like to list the files and just the names without sice, date, and permissions; this is especially the case with those long mp3 files:).
