auto download

hi,
i don't think if it is possible but it would be great:
You connect to an ftp and it is full. You set retry delay for example 30 secs and 1000 retry times. And you have no queue. But you know exactly the name of the program or whatever you want to download, is on the ftp. So it would be nice to enter the name of the program in a window and when you get into the ftp flashfxp automaticly scans the ftp for the program and downloads all folders or files which have the (file)name you entered. That is very useful at night when you sleep and don't want to get awake by a succsessful connection sound

Another feature would be helpful:
if you try as above to connect to an ftp and it's full that ou can see in the ftp ip in the quick hint when you move your mouse over the minimized flashfxp in the taskbar. Now you only see FlashFXP - [My Computer] [Not connected]

But that doesn't work automatically ;P You can't do that if you aren't connected to the ftp

as an alternative you can logon to ie. ftp.chello.se

1. Chose a folder and select add
2. Log off the site.
3. "Try" to connect to the site you want to download from and choose add site. (add it as a "temp" site)
4. Edit the settings for this site . ie. 30 sec's retry's with 1000 try's
5. Edit the que (folder) and select the "temp" site you have chosen b4.
6. Enter the folder you want to download from the site.
7. Choose the local folder.

and click CTRL + Z to start the transfer ..

but a better solution would sure be nice.
