NAME
       gftp - file transfer client for *NIX based machines.

SYNOPSIS
       gftp  [options] [[proto://][ user : [pass] @] server [: port ][/	direc-
       tory ]]

DESCRIPTION
       gFTP is a file transfer client for *NIX based  machines.	 It  currently
       has  a  text interface and a GTK	graphical interface. It	currently sup-
       ports the FTP, FTPS (control connection only), and SSH protocols.

OPTIONS
       You may enter a url on the command line that  gFTP  will	 automatically
       connect to when it starts up.

       --help, -h
	      Display program usage.

       --info Display  some  information about how gFTP	was built. Please send
	      the output of this command when submitting a bug report.

       --version, -v
	      Display the current version of gFTP.

       proto  This specifies the protocol that should be  used.	 It  can  cur-
	      rently  be  one  of the following	options: ftp, ftps, ssh, local
	      and bookmark. If omitted,	the  protocol  specified  by  the  de-
	      fault_protocol option will be used.

       user   The username that	will be	used to	log into the remote server. If
	      omitted,	your current username will be used for most protocols.
	      For the FTP protocol, the	anonymous username will	be used.

       pass   The password that	will be	used to	log into the remote server. If
	      omitted, you will	be prompted for	the password. If you are using
	      the FTP protocol,	and the	username is anonymous, then your email
	      address will be used as the password.

       server The remote server	to connect to.

       port   The remote port on the server to connect to. If omitted, the de-
	      fault port for the protocol will	be  used.  The	port  will  be
	      looked up	in the services(5) file.

       directory
	      The  directory to	change to once you are connected to the	remote
	      server.

FILES
       ~/.gftp/gftprc
	      Per user configuration file. Most	of these options can be	edited
	      inside  gFTP.  This  file	  is   also   commented	  very	 well.
	      ~/.gftp/bookmarks
		     Per user bookmarks	file.
