Here is a small example to handle the collecting of verbose mode's chatter.

#!/bin/sh
#
HOST=name.of.host.edu
FILE=/mypath/me/file
#
/usr/ucb/ftp -n -v $HOST << EOFTP > output 2> errors
user the_name the_password
type binary
put $FILE
bye
EOFTP

====================================================

A better suggestion is to use BFTP [Background FTP] instead of FTP.  It
can be retrieved via anonymous ftp from venera.isi.edu.  The latest
version is BFTP.12.

Questions regarding BFTP should be directed to Annette DeSchon
(deschon@venera.isi.edu).  If you use ftp at all, then this is excellent
software to use.  Yes, it is compatible with FTP.  With the distribution,
there *is* a BFTPtool.  Pretty neat I might add.
