Hello im trying to build a Simple FTP program written in C. So far I have made a text file FTP program that prompts the user for the name of the file, writes that name as a character string to a buffer, then writes from the buffer to the socket. Opens a text file for reading, reads the text from that file to a buffer then writes from the buffer to the socket. The recieving program reads the filename from the socket, opens a new file of that name, reads the contents of the file from the socket and writes them to a new file. for this simple text ftp im using: FILE *fp; fopen fclose  read write fputs fgets However I would like to expand my FTP program to read binary files and transfer them. I have no idea how to do that though. Please help me :-)

That is a bit complicated to just tell you but if you download the source for wget, curl, or ncftp it may help you. Good luck.
