Ok, sorry, I was probably not as clear as I should have been. One of the
sites I have to connect to asks for ftp over tls, and none of the 4
sites has standard port 21 as the connection default.
I know I could probably use filezilla on the GUI, but I'd prefer the CLI.
Warm regards,

Tim here. I've always just used the command-line client (since the
late 80s or early 90s over dial-up?) which is accessible as any other
CLI application:
$ ftp ftp.example.com
ftp> ls
[files & directories]
ftp> cd /pub
ftp> ls
[files & directories in /pub]
ftp> bin
200 Type set to I.
ftp> get some_file.zip
[file downloads]
ftp> put local_file.mp3
[uploads "local_file.mp3" to the server]
If you're only transferring text documents, you can skip the "bin"ary
command, letting it jockey line-endings for you. But most of the
time you want to use "bin"ary mode to ensure the file doesn't have
newline-translation during transfer.

recommend, weather it be CLI or GUI really doesn't matter to me.
