The TFTP client tries sending a RRQ packet TIMEOUT_COUNT times (default 10), spaced TIMEOUT msecs (default 5000) from each other. 50 seconds total by default. I would keep the same scheme for the server, except it would obviously not send anything after each timeout. This would allow to print something every 5 seconds, for user feedback. > - It would be nice if the user could terminate the command using ^C. Sure. The main loop in NetLoop() would be unchanged, so I expect ctrlc() to work for free in the same way it does for the TFTP client.
