Hello,

I'm not sure if this list still exits and if this a well known problem. 

My simple find script for finding files on a ftp server is truncated 
after some lines.

-- schnipp ~ftp/bin/ftp-exec/find  --
#!/bin/sh
if [ ! $# -eq  1 ]; then
        echo "use 'quote site exec find <findstring>"
        echo ""
else 
	grep $1 /find.lst
fi
-- schnipp --

in ftpcmd.y line 1471 there is a limit of 20 lines.

My question in why is there such a limit ??? 

For the records, i'm using wu.ftpd 2.4

with kind regards 

Jens
