For basic ftp, FileList can do that.

Edit this info in a Workspace , your ftp should show up in the FileList:

"Please fill in the following info, then select all text and choose DoIt."

    | aa |
    self flag: #ViolateNonReferenceToOtherClasses.
    aa _ ServerDirectory new.
    aa server: 'st.cs.uiuc.edu'.    "host"
    aa user: 'anonymous'.
    aa password: 'yourEmail at school.edu'.
    aa directory: '/Smalltalk/Squeak/Goodies'.
    aa url: ''.    "<- this is optional.  Only used when *writing* 
update files."
    ServerDirectory addServer: aa named: 'UIUCArchive'.  "<- known by 
this name in Squeak"
