note aitap <p>That's not so easy. FTP has two ways of transferring file lists: NLST, which transfers only names (and is used in <c>$ftp->ls</c>) and LIST (which can be got using <c>$ftp->dir</c>), which is human-readable and is not described in RFC. The second one can contain the needed dates, but you can have troubles decoding it. (see the [http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc959|RFC 959] for details)</p> <p>Use [mod://Net::FTP::File] to get parsed values from LIST command.</p> <!-- Node text goes above.
