Here's a faily simple and quick way to deal with FTP actions without the need of 1000 clicks in a FTP client like FileZilla (though this one's really great!).

1. Create a text file with all the FTP commands in it, say "copyindex.txt"
2. Fill the text file with your desired commands, see below for an example.
3. Initiate the process by executing ftp -s:copyindex.txt

Example text file:

open yourserver.org
your_ftp_username
your_ftp_password
cd desired/path
put index.htm
bye
