I have to use ange-ftp because the server I'm connecting to doesn't run
ssh.  When I transfer, it uses binary, which does not work.  The server
is a mainframe and likely uses ebcdic.

If I ftp from the command line in ascii mode, the file comes over to
Windows correctly.  If I enter the commands by hand in the ange-ftp,
setting ascii, it works.

How do I tell ange-ftp to use ascii?

I set ange-ftp-binary-file-name-regexp to "", even though the .cpp file
wasn't in the regexp.

Here's a trace.
