Subject: [ruby-talk:15789] RCR: Net::FTP SITE command et. al.

Hi,

I recently needed to be able to 'chmod' a file after 
transferring it, and found that Net::FTP does not offer 
the option to use SITE commands, among others.

Fortunately, I was able to add it easily enough:

require 'net/ftp'
module Net
  class FTP
    def site(sitecmd)
      cmd = 'SITE ' + sitecmd
      voidcmd(cmd)
    end
  end
end

...

ftp.site('chmod 755 somefile.cgi')

I request this functionality be added to the distribution.
I also request the other missing commands to be added,
such as HELP, NOOP, ABORT, etc.
