The problem with this program is that it does not allow the
Macintosh end of the program to initiate ftp transfers. You must
start up ftp from a system with a command line user interface, then
ftp to the Mac. From this point, all transfers are implemented by
entering a command to the ftp running on the non-Macintosh host.
However, the source code for NCSA Telnet is available, so maybe
someday an enterprising programmer will put in the code necessary for
Mac-to-Mac ftp.
