Summary:
 
FTP (file transfer protocol) is a file transfer utility commonly used
with UNIX systems.
 
FTP is capable of using scripts (lists of commands from external
files). The following example demonstrates a script that opens a
connection to IP address 11.11.11.11, logs onto the host as a guest
with the password guest, uploads the FILE1 file, and quits:
 
   open 11.11.11.11
   guest
   guest
   put file1
   qui
 
You must use the -S option for FTP to read this file under Windows NT.
If the previous script was in a file called TEST.SCR, you could start
the script by typing the following:
 
   ftp -s:test.scr
