Emmet Gray's ``PCOMM'' (version 1.2*) seems to be the perfect answer to your
needs; it should be at any archive site. His home site for those who wish to
ftp is ``cerl.cecer.army.mil'' [IP 129.229.1.101].
In operation, PCOMM resembles the popular ProComm Plus found on MS-DOS boxes,
its commands are all menu driven, and the file transfer menus are invoked and
selected using the arrow keys on your keyboard.
The systems on which I have successfully compiled and used PCOMM include:
3B1 (aka UNIXPC and PC7300), AT&T SVR 3.51 thru 3.51m [68010],
A/UX 2.* on a Mac [68020],
CTIX 6.2* on a Convergent Technologies MightyFrame [68020], and
Sun 3/60, both SunOS 4.0.3 and 4.1.1 [68020]
