(Go) chmod (Setting File Permissions)

This example assumes your FTP server supports the "chmod" command, which typically means it must be a server running on a Linux or Unix system. The SendCommand method may be called to send arbitrary commands to the FTP server. This example sends a "chmod" command to set the file permissions.

        // You should write code to examine the response to
        // the SendCommand.  As an example, the FTP server
        // used for testing responds with this for success:
