Don't pause operating/refreshing while file transfer

Is it a good idea to use another port for file transfering and/or chating?

Not a good idea for me: too much modifs in the code.
It is now possible to minimize the Chat and FT windows without losing their content: screen updates are then back but you keep your Chat & FT contexts.

For FT in parallel with screen updates, the best thing to do is to connect 2 viewers:
- One for the screen
- One for the FT (in viewonly mode).

After V1 release, it is possible that I will allow for FileTransfer connection only (no screen view at all).
