Program Title: HopAlong FTP for Windows, implements a toll-free
file transfer protocol
Program Runtime Requirements:

4 MB memory
MS-DOS 5.0 or higher

Modem supporting hardware flow control
Program Description:
HopAlong FTP for Windows permits you to avoid long distance
toll charges when transferring files over the public telephone
network. You define a "path" of computers, install HopAlong
FTP on each computer, and your files will automatically
hop along the path from source to destination. If each call
along the path is toll-free, you can effectively transfer
files without charge over long distances. HopAlong FTP's protocols
use file compression and advanced V.32 features to minimize the
additional time required to hop along the path of computers. Also
there is a DDE interface to facilitate applications requiring an
unattended mode of operation. Useful for telecommuters as well.
