WHAT IS TNFTP?
--------------
`tnftp' is a `port' of the NetBSD FTP client to other systems.
See http://www.NetBSD.org/ for more details about NetBSD.
tnftp was formerly known as `lukemftp'
It was renamed to `tnftp' by Luke Mewburn in February 2003.
The enhancements over the standard ftp client in 4.4BSD (and
derivatives) include:
* command-line editing within ftp
* command-line fetching of URLS, including support for:
- http proxies (c.f: $http_proxy, $ftp_proxy)
- authentication
* configurable prompt
* context sensitive command and filename completion
* dynamic progress bar
* feature negotiation extensions from RFC 2389
(c.f: `feat' and `remopts')
* extensions to ftp from the IETF ftpext working group
(c.f: `mlsd' and `mlst')
* IPv6 support (from the WIDE project)
* modification time preservation
* paging of local and remote files, and of directory listings
(c.f: `lpage', `page', `pdir')
* passive mode support, with fallback to active mode
* retrieval of filenames listed in a given file (c.f: `fget')
* `set option' override of ftp environment variables
* socks4/socks5 support
* TIS Firewall Toolkit gate ftp proxy support (c.f: `gate')
* transfer-rate throttling (c.f: `-T', `rate')
* uploading of files on the command line (c.f: `-u')
