When the transfer begins, an icon of an open blue book appears. When the transfer
has been completed, the book closes and a cross or a tick on the icon indicates
whether or not the transfer was successful.
You can maximize the book icon at any time to display information on the state
of the transfer. When the transfer is in progress a count of bytes transferred is
updated. Any messages relating to the transfer, such as failure messages from the
remote file transfer responder, are displayed in the window.
