1. Introduction

	Timed FTP was created, because we didn't find any other program
	wich does the same as Timed FTP. Timed FTP is created to transfer
	files continuously with a timeinterval that user can self decide.
 	Timed FTP is an ecxellent program to transfer for example webcam-pictures
	to your internet-server or transfer your html-file wich you are
	configurin all the time. Timed FTP can also determine if the file
	is changed and it will be uploaded only then - if the user want's so.


2. Disclaimer

	Timed FTP is freeware, so you may use it for free. Timed FTP 1.1 may
	freely be distributed on any cd:s, internet-page or any other media.
	If Timed FTP 1.1 is distributed it has to be non-changed.

	We don't take any responsibility of the damages Timed FTP causes to the
	user of this program or anyone else.


3. Installation

	Timed FTP don't need any additional installation, but it's recommended
	that you extract the files from the archive to an own directory on your
	harddrive.


4. How to use Timed FTP

	4.1 Running Timed FTP for the first time

		You need to enter the host information at first, so click on the
		host information -button. Enter the host where you want to transfer
		your file, for example: ftp.pcuf.fi

		Then enter your user name and password in the correct fields and
		click ok. The host address and user name will be saved for future
		use also - you need only to give your password when you start
		Timed FTP again.

	4.2 To transfer a file emediately

		When you have entered your host information as told in step 4.1
		you can transfer a file emediately by clicking on the choose file
		button and choosing the file to upload. You can enter the directory
		and file name also directly in the fields. Then only click on the
		transfer now -button.

		To download a file from your ftp-server check the download-button
		and then type in the filename and directory in the correct fields.

	4.3 To use timed transfers

		When you have entered your host information as told in step 4.1
		you can preset your file transfers. Click on the choose file -button
		and choose your file to upload. You can enter the directory and file
		name also directly in the fields. Then choose the time interval
		for your transfer; enter the time and choose either second, minute
		or hour. Then click start-button and the timer is active.

		Stop-button stops the timer. If you want to download a file from your
		ftp-server with timed transfer then check the download-button and then
		type in the filenam and directory in the correct fields.

		If you want to transfer the selected file only if it's changed then
		check the "Transfer only if file changed" -box.
