unless you get a SyntaxError in one of the distributed ftputil
files, a SyntaxError should never have anything to do with
ftputil.

Possibly you have accidentically used a mixture of tab and space
characters for the indentation of your code. Always(*) use four
spaces per indentation level, never tabs. The script tabnanny may
help you to find inconsistent indentation (see
http://docs.python.org/lib/module-tabnanny.html ).

Hope that helps.

(*) unless you have to work with a project's code which is
consistently tab-indented (there are few such projects), and even
then you should use spaces in your own files which don't belong
to the "tabbed project"
