Hi.
Is there a way to retrieve the contents of a text file
on a FTP server using prontoscript?
Yes, there is. You MUST implement the FTP protocol via TCP/IP socket as specified in the Requests For Comment (RFCs) for FTP (pls search google/yahoo). The exact protocol is dictated in, albeit not necessarily always human readable form, these specifications.
To download files (actually a buffer of file data), you exchange packets with the FTP server.
If such programming is beyond you, someone has, I believe, implemented an FTP client. I could be mistaken and they might have said Telnet.
You might want to try a SEARCH for last 2 or 4 years in this forum.
