What is FTP Browser?
=====================================================================
FTP Browser is a feature rich TCP/IP FTP client for OS/2 Warp. It
is quick, compact and easy to use. It makes browsing directories
as fast as point and click, and transferring files as simple as drag
and drop.
Please, feel free to use this shareware version of FTP Browser to
evaluate its functionality as long as you agree to the legal
disclaimer. Should you continue to use this product beyond the
30-day trial period, please select "Registration information" from
the application's menu.
Thank you for your interest in FTP Browser.
