Dear Moritz;

There is an X program available called 'Sprocket' that is an excellent ftp
program.
The graphical interface is easy to use.  I do not have the address for the
site but if
you look at the kde home page and look under the kde apps home pages you
will find a link
to it.

Sincerely'
Joseph E. Knuth
