        xmftp v1.0.0 has been released and can be retrieved from:

        http://www.magg.net/~kaos/html/xmftp.html

        Binaries are available for those that do not have Motif v2.0.

Here is a summary of application changes:

        - Added Site command support (in the Remote menu) (suggested by

        - No longer have to fill in all fields when entering sites into
          the site manager. If login or password field is blank,
          anonymous login is used. (suggested by

        - Shortened timeouts on certain operations (connection etc)
          This is set to 30 seconds by default.
        - Now a window can be brought up upon a connection that shows
          server responses.
        - Now has an option menu for general settings
        - Now using XPM library for icons instead of crappy XmGetPixmap
                - You can use your own icons too (XPMs only). Take a look in
                  /usr/local/lib/xmftp/icons/ and replace them at will
                        - If you do replace them, keep a backup of your
                          new icons becuase the next 'make install' will
                          wipe them!
                - You MUST have the XPM library to compile!
        - Using the binary release some had trouble connecting to
          sites (gethostbyname error). SHOULD be fixed now (using nslookup).
        - Changed compilation link line, maybe this will help you all
          that are getting undefined references?


                - Ports for a site can only be set via the Site Manager
