Greetings friends.
I wonder if you could help me with an idea that my mind created.

I have a friend with an Intel/Microscloth box (bliah, although she said
sh might getting an Amiga after some dozen of Windoze crashes) and we
like to exchange modules. You know, the music ones.
hmmmm...actually I only gave to her, she hasn't given any to me...
Anyway!

The problem is the xpk libraries.
I pack my mods with xpk sqsh and I am very happy with it until I have to
give something to a Intel/MS box owner. I have to go through the whole
process of unpacking them and saving them somewhere else.

Could I setup my Amiga so she could ftp her and the mods she gets to be
automatically unpacked for her?

I never messed with ftp or multiuser so far and I would much appreciate
any help I get (as I usually say).

I have WB 3.0 and AmiTCP 4demo along with the latest xpk libraries.

Thank you,
Aristotelis
