lsftp - Client for the sftp subsystem

       The lsh program suite is written mainly by Niels Möller  <nisse@lysator.liu.se>.  The  lsftp  client  was
       written mainly by Pontus Freyhult.

       This  man-page  was written for lsh 2.0 by Pontus Freyhult <pont_lsh@soua.net>, it is based on a template
       written by J.H.M. Dassen (Ray) <jdassen@wi.LeidenUniv.nl>. Most of the text was taken from the  man  page
       provided for the Debian GNU/Linux system by Timshel Knoll <timshel@debian.org>.

lsftp  is  a program that connects to a remote sftp server, and can be used to upload download files á la
       FTP. When invoked with no command arguments, lsftp enters interactive mode, much like ftp(1)  (although
       with  a  more  feature  rich  interface,  providing tab completion, recursive up and downloads and more).
       However, when the -- argument and subsequent commands are passed to lsftp, lsftp  simply  executes  those
       commands and exits.

LSFTP_RSH
              The program to use for the SSH tunnel. If the variable is not set, lsftp defaults to using lshg.

       LSFTP_BEFORE_ARGSLSFTP_AFTER_ARGS

              may be used to specify default options to be parsed before and after  the  command  line  options,
              making it possible to provide default transport options as well as commands if desired.

       lsftp - Client for the sftp subsystem

       Anything (except the special options --, --help and --version ) before the last (if any) -- is handled as
       options,  meaning  lsftp  passes  them  directly  to the transport program. If you want to pass -- to the
       transport program, you must give an extra -- to make sure it's not handled as end of options, e.g.

       lsftp OPTIONS -- MORE OPTIONS --

       to enter interactive mode or

       lsftp -l OTPIONS -- MORE OPTIONS -- ls

       to perform the ls command.

       Available options:

       --help Show summary of options.

       --version
              Show version of program.

       --     End of options (if the last occurence).

       The  full  documentation  for  lsh  is  maintained as a Texinfo manual.  If the info and lsh programs are
       properly installed at your site, the command

              infolsh

       should give you access to the complete manual.
