Subject: [FTP] Getting the latest file

===

# modules
require 'net/ftp'

# do it
ftp = Net::FTP.new('ftp.symantec.com')
ftp.login('anonymous', 'nobody@nowhere.com')
ftp.chdir('/public/english_us_canada/antivirus_definitions/norton_antivirus')

files = ftp.list('*x86.exe')  # <-- what does this return?

Currently there are two files that show when I "print files" but I
want to download only the newest one.

Thanks for any help...!
