Ms FTP - it rocks!

It's quite a handy little tool, especially for automating uploads. You run it from a console.

Basically you write commands like this:

open ftpaddress
myname
mypassword
bin
put file

you can also use wildcards like
mput *.jpg
to upload all jpg files in the current folder

but the really neat part comes when you put the above in a file (ie ftpfile.txt) and run it like
ftp -s:ftpfile.txt

If you're into automating things it's very useful.
