Just a footnote

WebDAV is nice. I've used it in the past with drag & drop into a local 
directory that then securely synced files onto the host. But my hosting 
service now requires extra payment for access to it. My impression is 
WebDAV, because of Dropboxes & Drives has kinda got a bit sidelined. As an 
idiot (:-)) I found it very easy to use and robust.
