 8 The TRAN protocol over PVE, while not clearly documented anywhere,
 9 seems to require a "$*$DIS" character string to terminate the transfer
10 from host to DPS6.  See the TR for the code location to be changed.

13 The DPS6 is not very fast, and the PVE protocol is not very robust, so
14 l6_ftf_ should delay at certain points in its dialogue with the DPS6.
15 In particular, after sending the positive ack, and before the first
16 prompt for a transfer from the DPS6 to Multics.  See the TR for the
17 location in the code.

20 l6_ftf does not correctly handle files which do not end in a newline,
21 e.g.  they end in a formfeed.  Also, error messages should be printed
22 rather than error table numbers.

25 There seems to be a problem in the polled vip multiplexer which causes
26 l6_ftf to have problems with transferring large files.
