ftplib and attributes

[Michael Gilfix]

  You get the attribute of files when you do a listing. For example:

    import ftplib
    ftp = ftplib.FTP ('ftp.somewhere.org')
    ftp.login ()
    listing = ftp.retrlines ('LIST')

    # Print your listing to look at it
    for i in listing: print i

  To get your attribute, first split the fields, for example:
  import string
  entry = listing[0]
  fields = string.splitfields ()

  You attributes will be in field[0]. You can then do any other
mining  you want. Hope that helps.
