CIS Has Internet File Transfer
(03-Jan-95)
CompuServe members can now download files from the Internet using File Transfer
Protocol. FTP, as it's known on the Internet, is a way to move data such as
software programs, documents, and graphics from one site to another.
CompuServe's FTP service gives you the ability to literally reach into file
archives at computers on the Internet around the world. Now, members have access
to thousands of files in CompuServe forum libraries as well as files only
available on the Internet.
The FTP service makes use of CompuServe's enhanced menus, offers lists of
popular locations, and lets you access any FTP site of your choosing. FTP is one
more step in CompuServe's Internet Made Easy strategy, bringing the full power
of the Internet to CompuServe members in an easy-to-use format.
To see the icons that enhanced menus present, members must have these versions
or higher of CompuServe Information Manager: WinCIM 1.3 or MacCIM 2.4. To
download the most recent version of CIM for your computer, GO CIMSOFT.
To access FTP and other CompuServe Internet services, GO INTERNET. CompuServe's
Internet offerings are all part of CompuServe's extended services.
Thanks for the info.
