- Short: Access a CD-ROM as a simulated FTP session
- type: util/misc
- uploader: apreston@isd.csc.com

- This utility was initially designed to give a Sysop the ability
- to have a door (for Citadel or any BBS that supports STDIO doors)
- where a user could examine and grab files from a CD-ROM. Since the
- Aminet CD is organized like the ftp sites, I made it look like a
- session with ftp. A user can move up and down the directory tree,
- view the readme, or any other text files, plus the contents of archives
- can be listed.
-
- The advantage of this utility is that it keeps the user in the directory
- tree intended and also localizes where the user can put files for downloading.
