Depending on your particular needs, you could
- Use an external application that already does this (like wget, curl,
  snarf; look for details at http://freshmeat.net)),
- use some perl code (see Net::FTP(3pm)),
- or use a library like ftplib (ftp://ftp.cnj.digex.net/pub/cnj/pfau/).

If you insist on implementing it yourself, you can find the relevant
standards and specification on many places on the net, e.g.
http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/ .
