The details of how to do this can be found in the HP ARPA File Transfer
Protocol User's Guide (page 4.25) in my book.  In the example you can
use the HPCICOMMAND Intrinsic and redirect stdin and stdlist.  You would
need to code a program to read the stdlist file to verify the file
transfers were successful.
 
Hope this helps.
