how to use a third party ftp client in 1st page

[jim4897]

This is probably been posted before but I got Aceftp working right from 1st Page. I installed Aceftp and then found the executable and copied it to the 1st page directory and renamed it transfer.exe and now when I click on the 1st tranfer icon in 1st Page Aceftp opens. It will probably work with any ftp client. Sorry if this is a repeat, Jim

I knoew that would work for a long time but the probelem is that most ftp clients need to be installed to work and it is too messy to install it into the same dir as fp2k.

I installed the ftp client in the default directory and just copied the >exe file to 1st page directory and renamed it and it works.

I know aceftp works because when i uninstalled it it wasn't deleted, and i tried using it and it worked, but that is the only good ftp client that i know of to work if you do that. Others need dlls and other things in their installation diresctories and copying them makes the fp2k directory messy.

How about for the other ones you install the ftp program to the 1st Page directory instaed of the default directory then change the name of the .exe file to transfer.exe?
