That kind of depends where from and where to, doesn't it? Also, Windows XP
doesn't use DOS.

Not necessarily.
What is it you are trying to accomplish?
Where you are getting the file will determine what command line options (if
any that would be built into Windows XP exist) you would use.

Well you can't not login to the host if the host requires it. The owner of
the server sets the rules, not random passing visitors! The server also
needs to support FTP or another method of downloading files via the command
line. I'm gonna assume it does FTP for now.
Try using the FTP command with the -s parameter, which allows you to specify
a set of commands for the FTP command to process, something like the
following to download "textfile.exe" from ftp.example.com with the username
"username" and the password "password".
FTP -s:RobsCommands.txt
The file "RobsCommands.txt" might contain the following:
open ftp.example.com
username
password
binary
get testfile.exe
quit

There isn't one. Use Linux if you want to use a real operating system.
