lcd changes local directories.

and ls lists files on remote directory.

What I would like is lls, to list files on local directory.

Is this possible? I know i can always open another terminal to do this, but I'm lazy!

Yes:

!dir

The ! tells the client to run a local command. Tested this using both the Windows and Fedora default ftp clients.

No problem, glad to help :). Actually picked up the idea from vim, which uses `!` to run local shell commands.
