Then what you meant was correct, as I know of an FTP client that will
accept a URL[1].
Ummm. Is there a specification for the UI of an FTP client?

Is the source code available so it can be ported to such other

According to ISPF option 3.7.1, the Workstation Agent can be downloaded to

Seagull Software has a free Windows FTP client that handles PDS's well.
You can get it from Cnet, ZDnet, or directly from the Seagull website at

FTP always has two ends. The ends make a difference! The end where you
initiate the transfer is called the client; the other end is called the
