| | 38 | What is ftputil? |
| | 39 | ---------------- |
| | 40 | |
| | 41 | ftputil is a high-level FTP client library for the Python programming |
| | 42 | language. ftputil implements a virtual file system for accessing FTP |
| | 43 | servers, that is, it can generate file-like objects for remote files. |
| | 44 | The library supports many functions similar to those in the os, |
| | 45 | os.path and shutil modules. ftputil has convenience functions for |
| | 46 | conditional uploads and downloads, and handles FTP clients and servers |
| | 47 | in different timezones. |
