  <title>Send files</title>

  <steps>
    <item>
      <p>
        From the <gui>Contact List</gui> window, perform one of the following:
      </p>
      <list>
        <item>
          <p>
            Right click on the contact you want to send a file to, and choose <gui>Send file</gui>.
          </p>
        </item>
        <item>
          <p>
            Click on the contact you want to send a file, and choose <guiseq><gui>Edit</gui>
            <gui>Contact</gui><gui>Send file</gui></guiseq>.
          </p>
        </item>
      </list>
    </item>
    <item>
      <p>
        Select the file to send, and click on <gui>Send</gui>.
      </p>
    </item>
    <item>
      <p>
        The <gui>File Transfers</gui> window will appear.
      </p>
      <p>
        Wait for your contact to accept the file transfer, or click 
        <gui>Stop</gui> to halt the transfer.
      </p>
    </item>
    <item>
      <p>
        Once the transfer is finished, it is possible to close the <gui>File Transfers</gui>
        window.
      </p>
    </item>
  </steps>

  <note style="tip">
    <p>
      If you have multiple finished transfers listed in the window, click on
      <gui>Clear</gui> to empty the list. This will only remove the files from the
      list and will not delete them from your computer.
    </p>
  </note>
  <note>
    <p>
      It is possible to send files only using the following services: <em>Jabber</em>,
       <em>Google Talk</em> and <em>People Nearby</em>.
    </p>
  </note>
  <note>
    <p>
      In order to send a file to someone, you need to be connected to the Internet, or to
      a local area network.
