<dd>
The <b>ftp::Type</b> command sets the ftp file transfer type either
to <em>ascii</em>, <em>binary</em>, or to <em>tenex</em>. In every
case, also if the type name is unspecified, it returns the current type.
<p>Only <b>ascii</b> and <b>binary</b> types are currently supported.
There is some early (alhpa) support for Tenex mode. The ascii
type is normally used to convert text files to a format suitable
for text editors on the platform depended destination machine.
The binary type allows undisturbed transfers of non-text files,
such as compressed files, images and executables. </p>
