If you set up kermit right (and you have a current enough version of kermit

set rec path relative
set send path relative
set file coll update
get /relative *
send /relative *
To get the latest versions, go to the source
http://www.columbia.edu/kermit/
you should be able to find a version for just about anything there.
How about Kermit? Ok, perhaps it isn't
"very simple", but versions of
it seem to run on nearly anything from PC-DOS to CP/M, RT-11,
PERQs. VAXen and UNIX boxes, etc. One can do some nifty things with
it and scripting. I suspect that you may be familiar with it, and it
might not be what you're looking for, but in case you somehow managed
to overlook it with other things on your mind, I'm mentioning it.
I considered Kermit. I'll look in to it. Here's a great site I found
with lots of links to DOS networking resources:
