I think it would be a good idea to use the same ftp program as FreeBSD,
because their ftp program is great, and it will be another nice thing for
FreeBSD users who need to use Linux. It'll make them feel at home. Also,
the wget output *is* quite ugly.
If the new ftp program works well (haven't tested it yet), I'm willing to
make it the default download app for the above-stated reasons.
Best Regards,
