The Stanford MacIP code is the only freely available code that I know of
that does this, and the FTP client does bear something of a resemblence to
the space shuttle command console (buttons 'R' us), but...

Kinetics HostAccess product is very similar (being based on the Stanford
code).

Our (InterCon's) TCP/Connect package has a Font/DA Mover-style FTP client.

Ungermann-Bass's Net One package (which I don't think is actually shipping
yet, but has been shown at trade shows) has something in between Stanford's
and ours in Macishness.

These are the only Macintosh FTP clients that I know of.
