That's an unusual use of the word "slurping", but I get what you say from the
subject line.

I can recommend these tools:

1. rsync - http://rsync.samba.org/ ; http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rsync ; My
favourite rsync configuration is:

rsync -a --progress -v --inplace

But you may wish to add --delete-after to it.

2. lftp is a useful FTP/SFTP client that can upload entire trees and is
open-source: http://lftp.yar.ru/ .

You can implement something similar to LFTP in Perl, but it will take some
work, and rsync is generally better.
