1. The program uses mostly standard Unix syscalls and libcalls with some
BSDish memory routines (bzero). So it should have no problem compiling on
most Unix computers, and as you have experience, it does well on AIX and
OS/2. It should easily compile with mingw or cygwin gcc on PC.

2. Renaming uploaded file on target system can definitely be an option
since it may become useful sometimes but it will not work with directory
uploading.

3. The makefile is written to be compatible with most make format, so it
does not make assumptions of default object file suffixes. We'll see how
it evolves.

4. I agree that a timestamp check will be nice but timestamp checking is
fairly tedious considering all teh different LIST format out there to
parse through. I will add a limited timestamp checking that is compatible
with Unix type8 ftp server.

5. Is ftp proxy worth being added to wput? I have never used ftp proxy
before. So I am not famaliar with the transactions and commands used in
proxy mode. May someone enlighten me on that or point me to an URL that
has information about it?
