There is a unreleased FTP package for Claw (using Claw.Sockets, of course).
The code isn't particularly Windows-specific, so it probably could be
modified for other environments. (Claw sockets doesn't depend much on the
rest of Claw, and could have been created separately. We looked at making a
version of Claw sockets for Linux, but we don't use Linux enough to actually
do that.)

(This was included in Claw because it seemed weird by itself; if we had
packages for other common protocols as well it would make more sense.)

Tom probably can tell you more about the FTP package.
