Dear Board,

for even better usability of the FTP-Library, there should be some commands like these:

• SetFTPDirectoryEntryAttributes
  SetFTPDirectoryEntryDate
  SetFTPDirectoryEntryName
  SetFTPDirectoryEntrySize
  SetFTPDirectoryEntryType

For my own project (a GUI for offline-editing of new blog-entries for my own cms...) I
need to set some file-attributes for to make a text-file writable for the php-script...
These 4 could also be very usefull.

• GetFTPOwner
  GetFTPGroup
  SetFTPOwner
  SetFTPGroup

And something like

• ReceiveFTPMemory
  SendFTPMemory

should also be usable with memory-buffers instead of files. Of course, you could write a file to harddisk
and send it using SendFTPFile. But what to do when uploading many small files, using an usb-stick, write
-protected drives (CD-Rom, Vista) and so on...?

Many of these functions should not be hard to implement into the current FTP-Library...
