Hello,

I'm trying to add a file sharing feature to a multi-user application we have
in-house.  I'm trying to provide users of our app. with the ability to
exchange files, such as JPG's, AutoCAD DWG's, etc.  The multi-user functions
seem to provide a way to send cast members via the multiuser-server ---
which would help in exchanging files that are importable into director.
But, once the files arrive at the receiving machine, how do I save them out?
For example, if send a JPEG image?  What about files that are importable
into the cast such as AutoCAD DWG files?

I think I have a solution, but I'm hoping someone out there has a better way
:)

I'm leaning towards uu-encoding the files via an external call prior to
using FileIO to read file.  Then sending the resulting text stream and using
another external executable on the receiving end to un uu-encode the files.

Any thoughts?
