FTP for cDNAs\mRNAs

Question

[elisheva]

Hello everybody! I have a very basic question (I am new to these stuff) How can I do FTP to download all the cDNAs sequences from ensemble or mRNA from USCS - on fasta format? (of many organisms) The problem is that each cDNA is in a different directory. (what I found so far). I am using windows - mobaxterm. Thanks!!

some hints: you can use wget. It supports ftp and with -f option, you can read the URLs from a local file.

Write a script in your favourite scripting language.

Do you have an example for it?
