# This script makes it easier to ftp to your favorite sites.  It looks
# in your .netrc file and searches for a string you give it. This saves
# typing the whole name. e.g. Normally I would type
# ftp sumex-aim.stanford.edu, now I can just say 'call sumex' or
# 'call sum' since 'sum' uniquely identifies an entry in my .netrc
# Having things in your .netrc is also benificial since it will log
# you in, and save you the trouble of typing anonymous.
