Notes

You can specify a Transfer type from the main menu (see Transferring files in binary or ASCII mode). You can also specify a Transfer type for an individual site by highlighting the site in the Site Manager, clicking the Type tab, and choosing from the Transfer list. Auto is the default transfer type, and sends files in the mode specified for each file's extension.  All extensions are sent in binary mode unless they are listed in theASCII Extensions list.
