There was a program called "Apple FTP" that was in the emulator
directory on ground.  Or was in one of the program archives in
that directory (I do not recall the name).

Apple FTP was very interesting in that it mimicked FTP except
that instead of connecting to a remote account, you "ftp" to the
dsk image.  Naturally, you type "get" "put" "binary" and other ftp
commands.

So you would do something like this from the DOS command
line:

appleftp mydisk.dsk

appleftp>binary
appleftp>get mytxtfile
appleftp>end
