Try Amiga Explorer from Cloanto:

You don`t even need s/w on Amiga side for it to work. The PC stuff will do it for you!

or even AmiTrans:

To read text files on the amiga type 'more filename' or 'multiview filename'. e.g. more readme

Also be careful when transferring binary files like executables that you use full 8 bits and when transferred that the exe protect flag is set
e.g. protect filename +e
