Introduction
____________
FTP-It! is a multi-threaded, bi-directional, concurrent file
transfer application designed for OS/2 2.x and 3.x. It has
been designed to provide the maximum benefit for both the
beginner, as well as the expert FTP user.
Features List
_____________
Some of the key features of FTP-It! are as follows:
- Multiple windows, one for Local host and one for each remote FTP Site.
- Multi-threaded operation.
Each host executes on it's own thread, allowing interaction
with all hosts simultaneously.
- Concurrent file transfers in both directions(Put and Get).
- Remote Host message log
- Hot keys for most functions.
- Settings notebook for each host system.
- Byte count, time estimate and progress bar during file transfer.
- RFC 959, 1123 and 1579 specifications of File Transfer Protocol (FTP).
- Multiple file select for transfer.
- Drag and Drop file transfer, delete and local file print.
- Mixture of binary and ascii files allowed in transfer.
- Fast Browse of text files received.
After receiving an ASCII file such as 00index.txt,
a browse window will allow you to view the file online.
- Remote directory cache to improve performance of both the
local user and the FTP Servers by not having to perform
directory commands each time a user changes directories
to a directory previously viewed and unchanged by the user.
