There is a list of the Baja FTP functions in docs/v300_new.txt. The command you
would use is either FTP_DIR (to get a directory listing). But to check for a
file's existence programatically, it would probably better to query the file's
size instead (using the FTP "SIZE" command). Unfortunately, I didn't make a
Baja function to this, so you'd have to send the command to the socket manually
and parse the response (not too difficult).
