Procomm, Telix, and Kermit (and many other telecommunication
programs) have what is called a script command language.  If one has
some programming experience (with any language) it should not be
overly difficult to write scripts to do what you want.  - No, I do
not have such a script for a whole harddisk to give you, but I have
a method for uploading a whole directory semi-automatically using
MsKermit.  It is included in the (/pc/ts/)tskerm24.arc package,
which was announced very recently here.  (Available by anonymous ftp
from chyde.uwasa.fi, and so are Procomm 2.4.3, Telix 3.12, and
MsKermit 3.00.)
