 We don't have the same source

    def FTP.open(host, user = nil, passwd = nil, acct = nil)
      if block_given?
#        ^^^^^^^^^^^^
        ftp = new(host, user, passwd, acct)
        begin
          yield ftp
#         ^^^^^^^^^
        ensure
          ftp.close
        end
      else
        new(host, user, passwd, acct)
      end
    end
