What is tcpcmd?
tcpcmd is a Frontier suite of powerful Usertalk verbs that provide scripters with the most frequently used functions for developing internet applications like electronic mail, FTP file transfers, and WWW automation.
tcpcmd includes internet client scripts you can use "out of the box": sendMail, upload, download, getURL, and others. You can use tcpcmd to automate web retrievals and forms submissions. A rich suite of verbs for the supported protocols (FTP, HTTP, NNTP, POP, SMTP) allows scripters to develop their own internet client applications.
