[Nfb-web] website help

[Lloyd Rasmussen]

While FTP is running, typing "help" gives you the list you saw below.  Then,
typing "help glob" for example, tells you a little about what the glob
command is for.

A few of the more important commands include delete, cd, lcd, ls, dir, get,
put, mget, mput, open, connect, pwd and quit.

I am mostly using this command-line FTP program in website updates for the
NFB of Maryland site, http://www.nfbmd.org.
.
