Invoking fcp

You can use fcp to copy files to a remote system via a tunnel.

fcp [scp-options] f1 f2
fcp [scp-options] f1 f2... dir

fcp is a very simple wrapper that starts scp with the `-S path-to-ssh' argument, telling it to use fshwrap, which is another simple wrapper that gets rid of all flags that ssh accepts but fsh doesn't implement, and then calls fsh.

The net result is that you can use fcp as you use scp, for most uses, but sometimes all these wrappers might get in the way. See the scp documentation for information about the flags that scp accepts.
