Introduction: This program is designed for individuals or companies who wants to
upload, download or delete specific files to and/or from one or more FTP site with
predefined locations without spending too much time on logins, finding and transmitting
files. With all specific files defined, a user can just click on a couple of buttons to start
transmitting them or use the -Auto command line parameter to automatically start the
transmission process. This utility is very useful if the transmitted files are the same all
the time.
