# Examples
The following is a simple example of an FTP session, where the user `guest` with
password `password` logs on to the remote host `erlang.org`:
```erlang
1> ftp:start().
ok
2> {ok, Pid} = ftp:open([{host, "erlang.org"}]).
{ok,<0.22.0>}
3> ftp:user(Pid, "guest", "password").
ok
4> ftp:pwd(Pid).
{ok, "/home/guest"}
5> ftp:cd(Pid, "appl/examples").
ok
6> ftp:lpwd(Pid).
{ok, "/home/fred"}.
7> ftp:lcd(Pid, "/home/eproj/examples").
ok
8> ftp:recv(Pid, "appl.erl").
ok
9> ftp:close(Pid).
ok
10> ftp:stop().
ok
```
The file `appl.erl` is transferred from the remote to the local host. When the
session is opened, the current directory at the remote host is `/home/guest`,
and `/home/fred` at the local host. Before transferring the file, the current
local directory is changed to `/home/eproj/examples`, and the remote directory
is set to `/home/guest/appl/examples`.
