function h = ftp(host,username,password)
% FTP Create an FTP object.
%    FTP(host,username,password) returns an FTP object.  If only a host is 
%    specified, it defaults to "anonymous" login.
%
%    An alternate port can be specified by separating it from the host name
%    with a colon.  For example: ftp('ftp.mathworks.com:34')
