lftp is an ftp client that supports many protocols: ftp, ftps, http,
https, hftp, fish and file. lftp also has readline support (ie
tab-completion and history like bash and ncftp). Using lftp with the
fish protocol makes it a convenient substitute for sftp.
Known issues:
-When using the fish protocol, lftp causes a segfault when copying a
file to the host (put operation). Smaller files (<6k) will work OK. But
anything larger causes a segfault for me.
-lftp won't store the file time from the server. (reported by: Frédéric
L. W. Meunier).
