/***
 * This is an example program demonstrating how to use the FTPClient class.
 * This program connects to an FTP server and retrieves the specified
 * file.  If the -s flag is used, it stores the local file at the FTP server.
 * Just so you can see what's happening, all reply strings are printed.
 * If the -b flag is used, a binary transfer is assumed (default is ASCII).

* Usage: ftp [-s] [-b] *
