Does anyone know of an available API for FTAM clients (invokers)?

The ISODE 6.1 includes the libftam library, but I find it very hard to
understand and use. I have also looked at the FTAM client application
that comes with ISODE6.1 and tried to extract a useful API from that
code, but found that it is not straightforward at all. 

What I have in mind is a simple API (with limited functionality) that
will enable application programmers to utilize FTAM functionality from
their applications. I believe it should include functions like:

ftam_associate (machine, user, password)
ftam_cd (directory)
ftam_dir ()
ftam_rm (filename)
ftam_open (filename)
ftam_read (filename, buffer)
ftam_release (assoc_descriptor)

Hopefully somewhere out there something like this is available.

Thanks for any information.


Asgeir.
