Although that won't get a recursive hierarchy if the remote dir
contains subdirs. curl is very useful, but the cli can be cumbersome
for this sort of thing. For instance, it will accept multiple URLs on
the command line, but if you want each one to be saved in a like-named
file, you have to repeat the -O option once for every URL, e.g. curl
-OOO http://url1 http://url2 http://url3.
The OP might want to investigate installing wget (available via either
Fink or MacPorts). Then you can replace the combination of "curl -l"
plus repeat loop with something like this:
do shell script "cd " & quoted form of POSIX path of destfolder & " &&
/sw/bin/wget -r " & FTP_ADDRESS
