.SH DESCRIPTION
.I Xnsftp
is a user interface to the XNS Courier FilingSubset and Filing protocols.
The program allows a user to transfer files to and from a
remote network site running FilingSubset (version 1) or Filing (version 4) 
server software, typically a Xerox file server.
.PP
The server host with which 
.I xnsftp
is to communicate may be specified on the command line.
If this is done,
.I xnsftp
will immediately attempt to establish a connection to a Filing
server on that host; otherwise, 
.I xnsftp
will enter its command interpreter and await instructions
from the user.  When 
.I xnsftp
is awaiting commands from the user the prompt \*(lqxnsftp>\*(rq
is provided the user.  The following commands are recognized
by
.IR xnsftp :
.TP
.B \&!
Invoke a shell on the local machine.
.TP
\fBarchive\fP \fIremote-file\fP [ \fIlocal-file\fP ]
Serialize the file named in \fIremote-file\fP into \fIlocal-file\fP on the
local host. If \fIremote-file\fP is a directory, then the directory and all
descendants will be serialized. The serialized data format will maintain
both contents and attributes for the file and descendants. Useful for 
\*(lqarchiving\*(rq remote directories.
.TP
\fBappend\fP \fIlocal-file\fP [ \fIremote-file\fP ]
Not yet implemented!
Append a local file to a file on the remote machine.
If
.I remote-file
is left unspecified, the local file name is used in naming the
remote file.  File transfer uses the current setting
.IR type .
.TP
.B ascii
Set the file transfer 
.I type
to network ASCII.  This type is appropriate for
transferring 7-bit ascii text files.
Files stored using this transfer type are given the Filing attribute
tText.
.TP
.B bell
Arrange that a bell be sounded after each file transfer
command is completed.
.TP
.B binary
Set the file transfer
.I type
to support binary image transfer.
This is the appropriate type for transferring 8-bit binary data, e.g. Interlisp
DCOM files or XDE BCD files.
Files stored using this transfer type are given the Filing type attribute
tUnspecified.
.TP
.B bye
Terminate the FTP session with the remote server
and exit
.IR xnsftp .
.TP
.BI cd " remote-directory"
Change the working directory on the remote machine
to 
.IR remote-directory .
.TP
.B close
Terminate the FTP session with the remote server, and
return to the command interpreter.
.TP
\fBcopy\fP [ \fIfrom\fP ] [ \fIto\fP ]
Copy the file \fIfrom\fP to the file \fIto\fP on the remote machine. If \fIfrom\fP
is a directory, a copy of the directory and its contents will be made. If \fIto\fP
specifies a file, the resulting copy will have that name. If \fIto\fP
is a directory, a copy with the same name as the original will be made in 
the directory specified by \fIto\fP.
.I Copy 
will not implicitly create directories; therefore, any directories specified
in \fIto\fP must already exist.
The \fIcopy\fP command is not available when the session is using the 
FilingSubset protocol.
.TP
.BI delete " remote-file"
Delete the file
.I remote-file
on the remote machine.
If the remote file is a directory a confirmation will be required.
.TP
\fBdebug\fP [ \fIdebug-value\fP ]
Toggle debugging mode.  If an optional
.I debug-value
is specified it is used to set the debugging level.
.TP
\fBdir\fP [ \fIremote-directory\fP ] [ \fIlocal-file\fP ]
Print a listing of the directory contents in the
directory,
.IR remote-directory ,
and, optionally, place the output in
.IR local-file .
If no directory is specified, the current working
directory on the remote machine is used.  If no local
file is specified, output comes to the terminal.
.TP
\fBget\fP \fIremote-file\fP [ \fIlocal-file\fP ]
Retrieve the 
.I remote-file
and store it on the local machine.  If the local
file name is not specified, it is given the same
name it has on the remote machine.
The current setting for 
.I type
is used while transferring the file.
.TP
.B guess
Determine the type of the file being transferred either by examining the
contents (\fIput\fP) or by querying the remote service (\fIget\fP). This
type will then be used for determining if a conversion of content should
occur during file transfer and also specify the file type to be retained on
the service, during a \fIput\fP. This is the default type and is appropriate
for most file transfers. A file type may be forced to be of a given type by
using one of the
.IR ascii ,
.I binary 
or
.I type
commands. A \fIput\fP command can currently distinguish between
.IR ascii , 
.IR binary ,
.I interpress
and 
.IR vpcanvas (res)
file types. [\fINote\fP: the file type used may impose a translation
of contents during transfer, see \fIFILE TRANSFER PARAMETERS\fP].
.TP
\fBhash\fP
Toggle hash-sign (``#'') printing for each data block
transferred.  Data blocks vary depending on implementation, but
are typically 534 bytes long.
.TP
.B glob
Toggle file name globbing.  With file name globbing enabled,
each local file or pathname is processed for 
.IR csh (1)
metacharacters.  These characters include ``*?[]~{}''.
Remote files specified in mutliple item commands, e.g.
.IR mput ,
are globbed by the remote server.  With globbing disabled
all files and pathnames are treated literally.
.TP
\fBhelp\fP [ \fIcommand\fP ]
Print an informative message about the meaning of
.IR command .
If no argument is given, 
.I xnsftp
prints a list of the known commands.
.TP
\fBlcd\fP [ \fIdirectory\fP ]
Change the working directory on the local machine.  If
no 
.I directory
is specified, the user's home directory is used.
.TP
\fBls\fP [ \fIremote-directory\fP ] [ \fIlocal-file\fP ]
Print an abbreviated listing (containing remote path names) of the contents of a
directory on the remote machine.  If
.I remote-directory
is left unspecified, the current working directory
is used.  If no local file is specified, the output
is sent to the terminal.
.TP
\fBmdelete\fP \fIremote-files\fP
Delete the specified files on the remote machine.  If globbing
is enabled, the specification of remote files will first be
expanded using
.IR ls .
.TP
\fBmdir\fP \fIremote-files\fP \fIlocal-file\fP
Obtain a directory listing of multiple files on the remote
machine and place the result in
.IR local-file .
.TP
\fBmget\fP \fIremote-files\fP
Retrieve the specified files from the remote machine and
place them in the current local directory.  If globbing
is enabled, the specification of remote files will first be
expanding using
.IR ls .
The local file names will be identical with the name attribute of
the remote file names i.e. with the last component of the remote pathname.
.TP
\fBmkdir\fP \fIdirectory-name\fP
Make a directory on the remote machine.
.TP
\fBmls\fP \fIremote-files\fP \fIlocal-file\fP
Obtain an abbreviated listing of multiple files on the remote
machine and place the result in
.IR local-file .
.TP
\fBmove\fP [ \fIfrom\fP ] [ \fIto\fP ]
Move the file \fIfrom\fP
to the file \fIto\fP on the remote machine. If \fIfrom\fP
is a directory, the directory and its contents will be moved. If \fIto\fP
specifies a file, the file will be renamed during the move. If \fIto\fP
is a directory, the resulting file will have the same name as the original.
.I move 
will not implicitly create directories; therefore, any directories specified
in \fIto\fP must already exist.
The \fImove\fP command is not available when the session is using the 
FilingSubset protocol.
.TP
\fBmput\fP \fIlocal-files\fP
Transfer multiple local files from the current local directory
to the current working directory on the remote machine.
.TP
\fBopen\fP [\fB-F\fP] \fIhost\fP [ \fIport\fP ]
Establish a Courier connection to the specified
.I host
Filing server.
Note that
.I host
must be the Clearinghouse name of a Filing server, e.g. 
\*(lqcornellfs1:computer\ science:cornell-univ\*(rq; if the domain
and organization components of the name are not specified, they default
to the local domain and organization.
Unless auto-login has been disabled,
.I Xnsftp
will also attempt to automatically log the user in to
the Filing server (see \*(lquser\*(rq below). The \fB-F\fP option allows the
Filing Protocol to be used instead of the FilingSubset protocol when logging 
onto the service.
.TP
.B prompt
Toggle interactive prompting.  Interactive prompting
occurs during multiple file transfers to allow the
user to selectively retrieve or store files.  If
prompting is turned off (default), any
.I mget
or
.I mput
will transfer all files.
.TP
\fBput\fP \fIlocal-file\fP [ \fIremote-file\fP ]
Store a local file on the remote machine.  If 
.I remote-file
is left unspecified, the local file name is used
in naming the remote file.  File transfer uses the
current setting for
.IR type .
.TP
.B pwd
Print the name of the current working directory on the remote
machine.
.TP
.B quit
A synonym for bye.
.TP
\fBrename\fP [ \fIfrom\fP ] [ \fIto\fP ]
Rename the file \fIfrom\fP on the remote machine, to the file  \fIto\fP.
If \fIto\fP includes a directory specification, the action taken will
be identical to the \fImove\fP command. If no directory specification is
given, then \fIto\fP will be created in the same directory as \fIfrom\fP.
.I Rename 
will not implicitly create directories; therefore, any directories specified
in \fIto\fP must already exist.
The \fIrename\fP command is not available when the session is using the 
FilingSubset protocol.
.TP
\fBrestore\fP \fIlocal-file\fP [ \fIremote-file\fP ]
Deserialize the file named in \fIrlocal-file\fP into \fIremote-file\fP on the
remote service. If the contents of \fIlocal-file\fP includes a directory,
then the directory and all
descendants will be deserialized. The serialized data format will maintain
both contents and attributes for the file and descendants. Used in
