[TriLUG] GUI for OpenSSH and sftp? YES!!!

[Tanner Lovelace]

Note, by the way, if I recall correctly, fish:// also works
in some command-line programs like lftp.  The advantage
there is you get a the benefits you would get with an
ftp session while still being fully encrypted by ssh.

Cheers,
Tanner
