mTCP FTP is an FTP client for DOS designed to run well on early IBM PCs and similar machines.
Features include:
- PORT and PASSIVE transfer modes for the widest
compatibility with servers and firewalls
- 'Classic' transfer mode for use with ancient servers, like
the FTP server included in NCSA Telnet
- MGET/MPUT commands
- Configurable buffer sizes that allow you to tailor the
program for size or speed
- Support for quoting parameters, allowing for spaces in
filenames and directory names
- Exceptional performance, even when using the default buffer
sizes.
- Limited scripting: can run from files redirected to STDIN
The detailed readme for FTP can be found here: ftp.txt

A note about the screen shot - it was taken on a Windows XP system
running a special build of DOSBox that has networking support. This is
the best way to get screen captures. Your results on real hardware will
be similar.

FTP is included with the other mTCP based applications. They can be
downloaded from the main
