How can I use ftplib to retrieve files when I do not know their names? I
can do this to get a listing of the directory's contents:
ftp_server.retrlines('LIST')
The output from this goes to the console and I can't figure out how to
turn that into something I can use to actually get the files (like a
list of file names). I read a bit about the callback function that can
be passed to retrlines but I couldn't figure out how to use it.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks!
