I was using the ftp-find-file for the first time and noticed a few problems.
First of all, when it got the file it did not bother to swith to the buffer
that it put in.  Well that was not too much of a problem, I just quickly
switch to it, only to find that the buffer was put into read-only mode.
No problem again, a quick ^x ^q and the buffer became editable.  Well
after editing the file I was happy to find that when I did the normal ^x ^s
the file was ftp back to it's location, but the buffer was stil marked
as modified.  I know all these problem are minor, but before I go and try
and fix them I was wondering if somebody else has already beating me to
the punch.  If so, will you please send me a copy of your ftp.el.

The version of Gnuemacs is 18.54 modified for the Apollo.

Thanks,

Keith
