I can grok the notion of:
1.AmigaShell>  TYPE filename.txt > SPEAK:

But how and what do you mount "FTP" as a device?  It's an xfer protocol, though "ftp" is popularly used as a verb, and as names of programs.

Having it as a Amiga device sounds very cool in that very-cool modular Amiga way (like using Parnet to mount your buddy's Amiga's SPEAK: device and make his computer talk trash over the network ;-), but I cannot for the life of me understand the concept of mounting "ftp as a device".  Maybe I'm trying too hard here.

Somebody explain this or start a new topic/thread on it?
