Member	Value	Description
Automatic	2	Use MachineFormat if supported by the server. Use standard method otherwise.
MachineFormat	1	An extended FTP feature (MLSD) that uses a machine-readable format to get folder content, resulting in a more accurate listing (RFC 3659).
Standard	0	The legacy way of getting folder content using the LIST command.

Remarks

Not every FTP server supports MachineFormat. Support is determined automatically using the FEAT command.
