    <para>
     <function>ftp_async_fget</function> retrieves <parameter>remote_file</parameter>
     from the FTP server, and writes it to the given file pointer,
     <parameter>fp</parameter>. The transfer <parameter>mode</parameter>
     specified must be either <constant>FTP_ASCII</constant> or 
     <constant>FTP_BINARY</constant>. The difference between this function and the
     <function>ftp_fget</function> is that this function retrieves the file
     asynchronously, so your program can perform other operations while the
     file is being downloaded.

    <para>
