Shannon,

You CAN do a
put myPCdir/myfile.savf /qsys.lib/mylib.lib/myfile.savf
and it REALLY will create a save file called myfile in the library mylib.

Vern, see how after my cd /... command it said "Oh, this dude wants
namefmt 1 and I'll just switch automatically since he's done no file
system dependent commands yet?

From a real ftp session:
ftp gdisys
Connected to gdisys.dekko-1.
220-QTCP at GDISYS.dekko-1.
220 Connection will close if idle more than 5 minutes.
User (gdisys.dekko-1:(none)): rob
331 Enter password.
Password:
230 ROB logged on.
ftp> cd /qsys.lib/rob.lib
250-NAMEFMT set to 1.
250 "/QSYS.LIB/ROB.LIB" is current library.
ftp> ls myfile.file
200 PORT subcommand request successful.
550 File MYFILE in library ROB not found.
ftp> ls myfile.savf

FTP recognizes files, and those with an attribute of savf. PRTF's will
blow it's mind though.
ftp> ls acr100fm.dspf
200 PORT subcommand request successful.
501 Unknown extension in database file name.
