ftp's? </div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></blockquote><div><br></div><div>Not directly. Here is a couple of things that you can do, depending on your OS:</div><div><br></div>
<div>1) Mount the ftp site as a filesystem. On windows this can done directly, on linux/mac os x you can use FUSE/MacFUSE with the ftp file system plugin.</div><div><br></div><div>2) Use wget or curl to fetch the ftp file and save it locally. This could be done with a gs script that would issue a "wget" if the file same starts with ftp://, and open the file locally. </div>
