The FTP command to send a file is PUT.  If you want to send multiple
files with wildcards or regular expressions, the FTP command is MPUT. 
You can embed all of this in a shell script, just be sure and set the 
filetype (binary or ASCII) first!

Typing "?" or "help" at the FTP> prompt will return a list of
commands.  Extended help (of a sorts) is available by typing "help
<command_name>" at the ftp prompt...
