The latest published wget-ftpparse patch is wget-1.5.3-ftpparse-19970712-0.52.patch .
wget-ftpparse patch is an unofficial patch for GNU Wget, a free network utility to retrieve files from the World Wide Web using HTTP and FTP.
It modifies Wget so that it will use D. J. Bernstein's ftpparse library for parsing LIST responses from FTP servers. This means that this modified Wget can understand various LIST output formats, while the original Wget can recognize UNIX-ls-style listings only.
