so I finally figured that:

ftp> cd XXXX.YYYY/#E2
250 Currently to user XXXX.YYYY with class #E2
cd XXXX.YYYY/#E2/
550 Invalid directory.

so with quote I was able to do
curl -E certkey.pem -k -v -u user:pass
ftp://usa.ftptls.edisrvcs.com/xxx.yyy/ --ftp-ssl --quote "cwd /#E2" -T
testfile.txt

ok..

so now I just need to download files.

Would you have a quick bash script that parses list of files and then
downloads them?
Also, I have downloaded one of the files, but the content was not text
"@@!...." is there some kind of flag I have to set to maybe get files
as text or...?

Thanks,
Lucas
