DESCRIPTION:   (please read this entire file!!!)
============
 
   This application is a standard File Transfer Protocol (FTP) client 
   application for Windows Sockets.  The user interface for this FTP 
   client is designed with the novice FTP user in mind.  Usage should 
   be obvious.  For more information on FTP please refer to the many
   different NETNEWS groups or one of the recent books on the Internet.
   WS_FTP32 is the 32 bit version of WS_FTP for Windows NT, Windows 95
   and Windows 3.x with Win32s.

   You can not run WS_FTP32 with Trumpet on Windows 95!!! WS_FTP32 
   requires a 32 bit network stack on a 32 bit operating system!
