I did this, loved it. Approx 300 MB if I recall so not too bad.

However, there are two 'cd' commands to navigate to the backgrounds folder. Doing this as written gives me:

550 Failed to change directory.

Easy enough to fix, just eliminate one of the 'cd' commands. .

All I get with the last command is an “Illegal PORT command”

Well two can be pedantic you know? The real download command is just the mget one. The others are just setting it up. Technically you can also do it in one.

Anyways, the title is just meant to convey an easy method that would be really tiresome and boring if we did it with a gui.

That looks like five (5) commands to me. Anyone else see 5 commands? I see five commands.
