====FTP from Terminal====
#Open a terminal
#*MAC: open the "Applications" folder, choose "Utilities", then "Terminal".
#Navigate to where you want to transfer the files to.
#Connect to the micro-CT ftp server using the ftp command in the terminal:
#*Login with the micro-CT user account and password.
#Navigate to the directory of interest on the micro-CT system.
#*Logicals such as "ur" can be used as short cuts. Whole directory names must be used.
#Set a filename mapping convention to remove OpenVMS version numbers.
#*The command <code>ftp> nmap $1;$2 $1</code> sets anything before the version number to parameter $1 and anything after the version number to $2. The file output will be set to $1, therefore the version number will not be kept. 
#Set the file transfer mode.
#*[[File:Important.JPG|20px]] If you transfer an .AIM file in ascii mode, you will receive a "mesh generation" errors and "material ID out of range" message.
#Transfer your files.
#*Option: Turn off prompt so does not ask you whether or not to transfer each file.
#*If you do not turn off the prompt prior to transferring the files, press "a" (for all) to transfer all files at once.
#Exit FTP.
