[cs631apue] TCP HW2

[tparisi]

Hi Professor,
I had a few questions regarding the TCP program:

1. How descriptive should the error messages be? For instance is it 
enough to say "The source file did not open" as an error message when 
opening that file or do we have to be more descriptive based on what is 
returned?

2. What permissions should we give the destination file if it does not 
exist?  I would assume those that are source file have but I want to 
double check.

3. What should we do if there is a directory in the in the destination 
path that doesn't exist, should we create that or give the user an 
error?

4. In the man page that you gave us it said that the usage was "tcp 
file1 file2" etc.  Do you want our tcp program to run without having to 
write ./tcp or is having the "./" in front acceptable?
Thanks,
Tom
