ftp-compatible-dirs: preference variable

Default value: 0

When Epsilon uses FTP to access files on a host computer, it normally assumes that the directory conventions of the host computer are similar to those for Unix, Windows, DOS, and OS/2. Some computers (notably some VMS systems) use different rules for directories. Setting this variable nonzero makes Epsilon access remote directories in a way that's slower, but works on more systems.
