    Simple FTP client

    Hi,

    I am new to socket programming. I want to write a simple FTP client using sockets. I searched a lot on the internet but did not find any such client in C.

    It would be great if anyone could provide me the code or some directions to write it.

    Thanks,
    R

    Start with looking at libcurl. You should also read RFC 959, which describes the FTP protocol.

    On Windows you can use WinInet

    And as Anduril has suggested read the RFC...
