sophisticated command line file transfer program (ftp, http, sftp, fish, torrent)
See the codeREADME
LFTP
Command line driven, shell-like, reliable file transfer program. It supports a number of protocols and even BitTorrent with DHT! IPv6 is fully supported too.
To build from GIT sources, run autogen.sh script to create Makefiles. You will need autoconf, libtool, gettext-devel, automake, gnulib.
You can get gnulib using git clone git://git.savannah.gnu.org/gnulib.
Also for compiling lftp you will need these libraries:
- readline-devel
