^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

the problem here is that some fields of the second column "hard link count" 
have no space
after the "type string". yet in the UnixFTPEntryParser.java the regex to 
match is
    private static final String REGEX =
        "([bcdlfmpSs-])"
        
+"(((r|-)(w|-)([xsStTL-]))((r|-)(w|-)([xsStTL-]))((r|-)(w|-)([xsStTL-])))\\+?\\s+"

                                                                            
         ^^^^  
        + "(\\d+)\\s+"
        ......

I suppose that the \s+ here disallow the no space situation such as the 
former example.
Is it proper that simply change \s+ to \s*? or use a more robust way to 
handle this? or
just treat this as an mismatch?

thanks.
