Transfer Module
===============

The transfer module provides DCC SEND/GET support and userfile transfer
support for userfile sharing.

This module requires: none

Put this line into your Eggdrop configuration file to load the transfer
module::

  loadmodule transfer

There are also some variables you can set in your config file:

  set max-dloads 3
    Set here the maximum number of simultaneous downloads to allow for
    each user.

  set dcc-block 0
    Set here the block size for dcc transfers. ircII uses 512 bytes,
    but admits that may be too small. 1024 is standard these days.
    Set this to 0 to use turbo-dcc (recommended).

  set xfer-timeout 30
    Set here the time (in seconds) to wait before an inactive transfer
    times out.

  set sharefail-unlink 1
    By default, Eggdrop will abort the linking process if userfile sharing is
    enabled but the userfile transfer fails. Set this to 0 to keep the bots
    linked if the userfile transfer fails and retry every minute (both bots must
    be v1.9.0 or higher).
