VxFTP

VxFTP is a multithreaded PM based FTP client for OS/2 developed with Watcom's VX-REXX.


 * Requirements:
 * IBM TCP/IP for OS/2 Version 1.2.1, 2.x, or Warp IAK (Internet Access Kit)
 * recent versions of VROBJ.DLL and RXFTP.DLL (the 32-bit version, which comes with Warp IAK).
 * Multiple Threads:VxFTP is multi-threaded, thanks to the multi-threading capabilities of on top of which VxFTP is built. Multi-threading makes the application more responsive to the user. Since it is founded on REXX, VxFTP would be unbearably slow if all tasks were obliged to follow one another sequentially. Basically, VxFTP uses two threads, one for local disk access and updating the user interface, and another that talks to the remote host. Thus, if you've changed to another directory remotely and are waiting for the directory contents to be downloaded, you can still affect changes on the local file side.
