Peter;
Thanks for the tip on "moreInternet". A valuable addition to my
System Preferences , for sure.
I did manage to make "Finder" my ftp helper
(System/Library/CoreServices/Finder.app).
However, open location still misbehaves just as badly, including:
No error message (and no action) if you give it a bad URL (e.g. if
you forget the "
ftp://"; prefix).
No real action (beyond asking for a username and password) when you
give it an FTP URL that it doesn't like (e.g.
"
ftp://ftp.tiaonline.org/";). It also requires the terminating slash
to know that this URL is a folder, otherwise it asks for a folder to
download it, and then downloads the folder as a file.
It works beautifully on "
ftp://ftp.apple.com"; (surprise, surprise)
and probably some other FTP sites, but not very generally.
So, I guess it's back to using Fetch as my ftp helper, I guess.
