Does the FTP definition include a C level protocol?  I assume that
it does, but I'd like additional information.  I need to build
a user-friendly file transfer front-end to part of an application,
but I would also like to make use of the underlying FTP protocol
to do the file transfer over TCP.  How is the calling interface
FTP currently defined, and where can I read about this definition?

Thanks,
