The only docs I found on this is using a SOCKS proxy. What's the best way to
connect to an FTP server through a non-SOCKS proxy?

Replying to my own post in case anyone else needs the code (all of one
line)...

open("somefile.zip","wb").write(open("ftp://usernameassword@hostort/remotefile.zip",
roxy=>"http://proxyhost:proxyport").read)
