	! Title  : VAX_BASIC_TCPWARE_FTP_SAMPLE.BAS"
	! Author : Neil S. Rieck	(Waterloo, Ontario, Canada)
	!	 :			(https://neilrieck.net) (mailto:n.rieck@bell.net)
	! Purpose: to explore the possibility of controlling an FTP transfer from within VAX-BASIC applications
	! Notes  : 1.	written in VAX BASIC 3.8 running under OpenVMS 6.2 using Process Software's TCPware 5.3
	!	   2.	derived from file "ftp_sample.c" in TCPware's example directory which is
	!		copyrighted (c) by Process Software Corporation of Framingham, Massachusetts, USA.
	!	   3.	by declaring passing mechanisms in the "external" declarations we won't need to use VAX-BASIC's
	!		"LOC" function statement to substitute for DEC-Cs ampersand (address reference)
	!	   4.	optionally, rename this file to "ftp_sample.bas"
	!	   5.	build the executable as follows:
	!		$ basic  ftp_sample.bas
	!		$ link   ftp_sample, sys$input/options
	!			sys$share:tcpware_ftplib_shr/share
	!			sys$share:tcpware_socklib_shr/share
	!	   6.	interface to dcl as a foreign command like so:
	!		$ftp_sample :== $ sys$help:ftp_sample.exe
