Yes, if you use AmiTCP:

Select 'Network 3: External programs' under the menu Settings/Change
Settings, type in under the heading 'ftp:' for command: AmiTCP:bin/ncftp
for arguments: %s:%s <>"con:4/370/634/100/AWeb-FTPClient/close/screen %s"

The four numbers after con: represent the window size, change these
according to your preferences.

Put the file .ncftprc in your AmiTCP:HOME directory containing the
following lines:

#set logfile AmiTCP:HOME/.ncftplog
#set logsize 1024000
#set progress-reports 3
#set verbose 1
#set local-dir SYS:Transfer

Where logsize is the size of the logfile in bytes, local-dir is where
transferred files are put in. For the other parameters refer to
AmiTCP:doc/ncftp.man.
