gftp has an X-interface and a txt-only interface, gftp-gtk vs. gftp-
text, but if you want the interface from the screenshot you will need X

if you're using a txt-only machine, you can try midnight commander, it
has build-in ftp-support (e.g. in midnight commander, type in :  cd
ftp://ftp.nl.freebsd.org)
