Any Old-timers out here?

Hello!

I need to find an FTP program that will run from a DOS command line or batch
file script (or equiv.), and/or access a script to send and receive files
through the normal Windows 9.x Internet connection.

Here's the scenario.

1. Web owner sells data files via web.
2. Clients have automated process to order files.  This order is placed on
the FTP server with unique file name to identify the client.
3. Web owner picks up the order file via FTP (same automated process),
processes the data and sends the ordered file to FTP server.
4. Clients check for ordered file.

I used to use an old DOS based FTP program (filebone ftp) with my BBS to do
this, but this particular program handled all modem routines.  This would
require set-up and configuration on the client end which would make the
project impossible.

To make a long story short, the programs on both the clients' and web
owner's system have the capability of creating a DOS batch file, and/or text
based script as needed.  We just need the FTP program that can accept this
script, or command line options.

Any help would be appreciated.
