Just thought of trying some...
Found out you can mix mput/mget with put/get as long as the put/get happens
before the mput/mget.
put myfile
mget manfiles.*

Thanks to all who replied. Guess I was not too far off.
The replies made me think and try things.
What I found is that you can do all sorts of put, get, but you cannot mix
mput/mget with get/put.
And as far as status, no one said it does. Some of the suggestions were
exactly what I'm doing already, putting a status file out there and checking
for it's existence.
Most suggested to use Perl, unfortunately I don't know Perl. I wanted to
learn
it long ago, but life got on the way. Oh, I used Perl before by looking at
other scripts, and I may consider it, but what I'm doing presently is doing
the job.
Some suggested Expect http://expect.nist.gov/ I would rather not load
another
thing on my server.
Again, thank you all for your suggestions.
Here's my original question.

Sorry to ask such a simple question, but I cannot find any dox anywhere on
this.
I am currently running several ftp scripts getting or megetting and putting
files, but I have several scripts each doing one of the above or the other.
What I would like to be able to do is to script more then one function within
a single ftp session. Is that possible?
Does ftp return any kind of a status code so my shell script can tell if the
ftp was successful?
Any direction would be greatly appreciated, thank you!
