NCSA Telnet incorporates Telnet and FTP into the same progam.  It does
not have built-in FTP client, that is, you cannot FTP from your
Macintosh to another machine (although you can FTP from a machine into
your Mac).  It's available from zaphod.ncsa.uiuc.edu (128.174.20.50),
in the directory /NCSA_Telnet/Mac.
