 Something with directory tree to select the 'from' and 'to'

 Are there any?

All ready tried that one. It does not have any directory tree
display, or is there some command to bring it up that I missed?

This is not an ftp client but it can do what you ask for. It's not that
great for ftp but you could check it out as a last resort if you don't
find anything better.

Yes mc does show graphical directory tree for the local HD, but it
has no way to be used from within FTP so both local and remote sides
can be navigated.

Maybe graphical directory tree is bad selection of words.

Restated as FTP client that presents an local and remote windows
that can be individually navigated to specify file to be sent or to
get and directory to receive it in or to get it from.

Have you tried to cd to an ftp url (like
ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD ) from within mc?  It works for me.

How about some details about how do that.

Can you use mc to navigate the remote FTP server to find what you
are looking for?

Yes, that's exactly what you can do with mc.

1) start mc

2) cd /#ftp:ftp.freebsd.org

3) navigate away, copy files from server, and so on. Just as you would
to with local directories on your HD.

You might have to do some configuration, eg use of passive mode, default
username and so on. But sure it works.

Run mc, type in cd ftp://ftp.frebsd.org/pub;.  The active panel will
be replaced with the listing of that ftp directory, and you can drill
into subdirectories from there.  Tag files with ^T or the insert key,
copy with F5.
