This is Comfortable FTP, a full screen ftp client.
Supported are FTP both with active and passive data connections, IPv4 and IPv6, and SFTP (a file transfer protocol using SSH for authorization and connection encryption).
SFTP support is somewhat preliminary: It requires SSH protocol version 2 with a configured sftp subsystem on the server. Also, interrupting transfers doesn't work.
For generic installation instructions, see file `INSTALL'; for documentation read the info file `cftp.info'. For key bindings, see the file `bindings.desc'.
In cftp, press H for help.
The texinfo documentation is a mess; any help most welcome (especially the outline of a good structure).
