KGet isn't so much meant to be an ftp client, but an ftp "helper". You
would (for say) use kfm to open ftp.gis.net and browse around. When you
find a file you want to download, you simply drag it over an drop it on
kget. This is most useful when you have bunches of files to download. You
can drop 18 files on kget, but it'll only transfer however many you
specify at a time.

Hope that helps.

Ciao,
