Hi. Yes, I'm vaguely familiar with rsync. The problem is that I don't want each and every file posted. I don't download html and 8-bit files for example. I only download the zipped plain text files. Also I don't want some religious works. Therefore rsync won't help me.
I have to echo what David said. Rather than chaining yourself to FTP, you should look more deeply at what rsync is capable of. If you need, I could probably help you define an rsync line that gets what you want and ONLY what you want (I myself already have one that pulls ONLY the zip files).
