Subject: Re: Get remote and local file version and time stamp

Not sure if this is what you're looking for, but here's the timestamp at 
least.

File#mtime
File.new("testfile").mtime   #=> Wed Apr 09 08:53:14 CDT 2003

#this is assuming that you want to do something in Ruby if the file is 
of a certain age
Class FTP
  def timestamp(abs_path, cond, &block)
    file = File.new(abs_path)
    file.mtime == cond ? yield(file) : file.mtime
  end
end

check out http://www.ruby-doc.org/core/classes/File.html

For the version, what kind of versioning are you talking about?

My bad if this isn't what you're asking for,

-Luke
