FTP and SMTP are simple text based protocols, I show you how to get some files without a graphical FTP-Client.
Connect with Telnet:
| 1 2 3 4 5 6 | id@acer:~$ telnet debianuser.org 21 Connected to debianuser.org. USER anonymous PASS anonymous PASV RETR deli-0.8.0-core.iso | 
Connect with ftp client:
| 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 | id@acer:~$ ftp debianuser.org Connected to debianuser.org. 220 ::ffff:188.40.116.206 FTP server read Name (debianuser.org:id): anonymous Password: anonymous ftp> passive ftp> dir ftp> get deli-0.8.0-core.iso | 
Execute a local command and stay connected.
