ftputil 3.3 is now available from http://ftputil.sschwarzer.net/download and at the Python Package Index (PyPI). Changes since version 3.2 ------------------------- - Added `rest` argument to `FTPHost.open` for recovery after interrupted transfers [1]. - Fixed handling of non-ASCII directory and file names under Python 2 [2]. Under Python 3, the directory and file names could already contain any characters from the ISO 5589-1 (latin-1) character set. Under Python 2, non-ASCII characters (even out of the latin-1 character set) resulted in a `UnicodeEncodeError`. Now Python 2 behaves like Python 3, supporting all latin-1 characters. Note that for interoperability between servers and clients it's still usually safest to use only ASCII characters for directory and file names. - Changed `FTPHost.makedirs` for better handling of "virtual directories" [3, 4]. Thanks to Roger Demetrescu for the implementation. - Small improvements [5, 6, 7] Upgrading is recommended. Note that ftputil 3.0 broke backward compatibility with ftputil 2.8 and before. The differences are described here: http://ftputil.sschwarzer.net/trac/wiki/WhatsNewInFtputil3.0 What is ftputil? ---------------- ftputil is a high-level FTP client library for the Python programming language. ftputil implements a virtual file system for accessing FTP servers, that is, it can generate file-like objects for remote files. The library supports many functions similar to those in the os, os.path and shutil modules. ftputil has convenience functions for conditional uploads and downloads, and handles FTP clients and servers in different timezones.
