+oftp - ftp client with dual-pane text-mode UI
+=============================================
+
+oftp is a text-mode graphical ftp client, with a dual-pane UI , also known as
+the "orthodox" file management UI paradigm. The dual-pane UI design is a perfect
+fit for an FTP client, where the user is required to navigate two filesystems
+simultaneously; one pane is dedicated to the remote filesystem served over ftp,
+while the other is for navigating the local filesystem.
+
+oftp was written to address the lack of graphical FTP clients for DOS (MS-DOS,
+FreeDOS, etc), but will also run on UNIX systems using curses for its UI.
