[comp.unix.questions] ftp hash marks in binary mode

mkhaw@teknowledge-vaxc.ARPA (Mike Khaw) (06/17/88)

If I'm transferring a file of length x*1024 bytes in BINARY mode in
ftp, how do I calculate the number of hash marks that hash mode should
print?  (I know that in ASCII mode, I should see ceiling(x) hash marks.)

Thanks,
Mike Khaw
