The IBM i as FTP client can accept the USER subcommand with the usrid

prior line of INPUT.

I have a command wrapper of my own around IBM's FTP command. I take
the script member and make a modified version such that I log into
localhost (successful or not doesn't really matter) then CLOSE that
connection, then start running the commands from the specified script.

That way the specified script can start with OPEN followed by USER.
