The FTP (File Transfer Protocol) is used to copy files to or from
another ARPA network host. For simple transfers, you can give a
command to the monitor like the following examples:
FTP LOCAL.FIL←{MIT-AI}UNAME;FN1 FN2
(get a file from MIT)
FTP {MIT-AI}UNAME;FN1 FN2←LOCAL.FIL
(store a file at MIT)
FTP ←{SRI/NICGUEST}<NETINFO>*.RFC
(get multiple files from SRI, logging in there
as user NICGUEST)
FTP {SRI/NETINFO/NIC}←*.RFC
(store multiple files at SRI, under user name
NETINFO and account NIC)
For more complicated transfers, you can give a command of the form
FTP BBNA
which will make a connection to the specified host and allow you
to enter protocol commands in a format not unlike that described
in the protocol documents. For more information, READ FTP.DCS[UP,DOC]
