-	 be used as input the next time the callback function is

-	At the end of the file the following call is

-	<c>
-	 CBModule:CBFunction(UserProgressTerm, File, {transfer_size, 0})

- The callback function is to be defined as follows:

-	Size = {transfer_size, integer()} | {file_size, integer()} | {file_size, unknown}
- </c>
- 
- For remote files, <c>ftp</c> cannot determine the
- file size in a platform independent way. In this case the size
- becomes <c>unknown</c> and it is left to the application to
- determine the size.
- 
- <note>
- The callback is made by a middleman process, hence the
-	file transfer is not affected by the code in the progress
-	callback function. If the callback crashes, this is
-	detected by the FTP connection process, which then prints an
-	info-report and goes on as if the progress option was set
-	to <c>ignore</c>.
- </note>
- 
- The file transfer type is set to the default of the FTP server
- when the session is opened. This is usually ASCII mode.
- 
- 
- The current local working directory (compare <c>lpwd/1</c>) is set 
- to the value reported by <c>file:get_cwd/1</c>, the wanted
- local directory.
- 
- 
- The return value <c>Pid</c> is used as a reference to the
- newly created FTP client in all other functions, and they are to
- be called by the process that created the connection. The FTP
- client process monitors the process that created it and
- terminates if that process terminates.

+ <note>
+ The callback is made by a middleman process, hence the
+	file transfer is not affected by the code in the progress
+	callback function. If the callback crashes, this is

+	info-report and goes on as if the progress option was set

+ The file transfer type is set to the default of the FTP server
+ when the session is opened. This is usually ASCII mode.

+ to the value reported by <c>file:get_cwd/1</c>, the wanted
+ local directory.
+

+ The return value <c>Pid</c> is used as a reference to the
+ newly created FTP client in all other functions, and they are to
