<title>How can I send a file to someone?</title>
<p>
In the main <app>Empathy</app> window, right-click the contact that you want
to send a file to and click <gui>Send file</gui>.
</p>
<p>
Select the file that you want to send and click <gui>Send</gui>. The <app>File
Transfers</app> window will appear. Wait for your contact to accept the file
transfer, or press <gui>Stop</gui> to stop the transfer from happening.
</p>
<p>
If your contact accepts the file transfer, you can watch the progress of the
transfer and see the estimated amount of time remaining before it is complete.
If they do not accept it, the status of the transfer will change to <gui>File
transfer cancelled</gui> and the file will not be sent.
</p>
<p>
Once a transfer is finished, you can just close the <app>File Transfers</app>
window. If you have lots of finished transfers listed in the window, click
<gui>Clear</gui> to clear the list. This will only remove the files from the
list and will not delete them from your computer.
</p>
<note>
<p>
You must be online to send a file to someone.
