curl  <http://haxx.se/curl.html>
It's part of OS neXt as delivered but, depending on what you want to do, may need an update.

I did a drag and drop implementation recently to upload files. Ask and I'll remove the passwords and post it, but it's really quite trivial. No Terminal.app, just do shell script.

For just looking and downloading Finder's Go - connect to server menu item works pretty well. But it simply will not allow uploading and if you do upload something you have to eject the site and remount it. Apparently Finder thinks ftp connections are just support for commercial sites that don't change.

If you really want to get involved with Terminal.app, possibly for curl's progress line, have a look at:
