.SH VERSION

This man page documents lftp version 4.8.1.

.SH "DESCRIPTION"

\fBlftp\fR is a file transfer program that allows sophisticated FTP, HTTP

and other connections to other hosts. If \fIsite\fR is specified then lftp

will connect to that site otherwise a connection has to be established with

the open command.

.PP

\fBlftp\fP can handle several file access methods - FTP, FTPS, HTTP, HTTPS,

HFTP, FISH, SFTP and file (HTTPS and FTPS are only available when lftp is

compiled with GNU TLS or OpenSSL library). You can specify the method to use in `open

URL' command, e.g. `open http://www.us.kernel.org/pub/linux'. HFTP is

ftp-over-http-proxy protocol. It can be used automatically instead of FTP

if ftp:proxy is set to `http://proxy[:port]'. Fish is a protocol working

over an ssh connection to a unix account. SFtp is a protocol implemented

in SSH2 as SFTP subsystem.

.PP

Besides FTP-like protocols, lftp has support for BitTorrent protocol

as `torrent' command. Seeding is also supported.

.PP

Every operation in \fBlftp\fP is reliable, that is any non-fatal error is

handled properly and the operation is repeated. So if downloading breaks, it

will be restarted from the point automatically. Even if FTP server

does not support the REST command, \fBlftp\fP will try to retrieve the file from

the very beginning until the file is transferred completely.

\fBlftp\fP has shell-like command syntax allowing you to launch several

commands in parallel in background (&). It is also possible to group

commands within () and execute them in background. All background jobs

are executed in the same single process. You can bring a foreground

job to background with ^Z (c-z) and back with command `wait' (or `fg' which

is alias to `wait'). To list running jobs, use command `jobs'. Some

commands allow redirecting their output (cat, ls, ...) to file or via

pipe to external command. Commands can be executed conditionally based

on termination status of previous command (&&, ||).

.PP

If you exit \fBlftp\fP before all jobs are not finished yet, \fBlftp\fP will move

itself to nohup mode in background. The same thing happens with a

real modem hangup or when you close an xterm.

.PP

\fBlftp\fP has built-in mirror which can download or update a whole directory

tree. There is also reverse mirror (mirror \-R) which uploads or

updates a directory tree on server. Mirror can also synchronize directories

between two remote servers, using FXP if available.

.PP

There is command `at' to launch a job at specified time in current

context, command `queue' to queue commands for sequential execution

for current server, and much more.

.PP

On startup, \fBlftp\fP executes \fI/etc/lftp.conf\fP and then \fI~/.lftprc\fP and

\fI~/.lftp/rc\fP (or \fI~/.config/lftp/rc\fP if \fI~/.lftp\fP does not exist).

You can place aliases and `set' commands there. Some

people prefer to see full protocol debug, use `debug' to turn the

debug on. Use `debug 3' to see only greeting messages and error

messages.

.PP

\fBlftp\fP has a number of settable variables. You can use `set \-a' to see

all variables and their values or `set \-d' to see list of defaults.

Variable names can be abbreviated and prefix can be omitted unless the

rest becomes ambiguous.

.PP

If lftp was compiled with OpenSSL (configure \-\-with\-openssl) it includes software developed

by the OpenSSL Project for use in the OpenSSL Toolkit. (http://www.openssl.org/)

.SS Commands

.De

.PP

To do a directory listing of the local host.

.B alias

.RI " [" name " [" value ]]

.PP

Define or undefine alias \fIname\fP. If \fIvalue\fP is omitted, the alias is

undefined, else it takes the value \fIvalue\fP. If no argument is given

the current aliases are listed.

.PP

The bookmark command controls bookmarks.

Site names can be used in the \fIopen\fP command directly as-is or in

any command that accepts input URLs using the \fIbm:site/path\fP format.

.Sp

.in +0.5i

.TS

l	lx	.

add <name> [<loc>]	T{

add current place or given location to bookmarks and bind to given name

T}

del <name>	remove bookmark with name

import <type>	import foreign bookmarks

list	list bookmarks (default)

.TE

.in

.P

.B cache

.RI " [" subcommand ]

.PP

The cache command controls local memory cache.

The following subcommands are recognized:

.Sp

.in +0.5i

.TS

l	lx	.

stat	print cache status (default)

on|off	turn on/off caching

flush	flush cache

size \fIlim\fP	set memory limit, -1 means unlimited

expire \fINx\fP	T{

set cache expiration time to \fIN\fP seconds (\fIx\fP=s) minutes (\fIx\fP=m) hours (\fIx\fP=h) or days (\fIx\fP=d)

T}

.TE

.in

.P

.BR cat " \fIfiles\fP"

.PP

cat outputs the remote file(s) to stdout.  (See also \fBmore\fR,

\fBzcat\fR and \fBzmore\fR)

.BR cd " rdir"

.PP

Change current remote directory.  The previous remote directory is

stored as `\-'. You can do `cd \-' to change the directory back.

The previous directory for each site is also stored on disk,

so you can do `open site; cd \-' even after lftp restart.

.BR chmod " [" OPTS "] " "\fImode files...\fP"

.PP

Change permission mask on remote files. The mode can be an octal number or a symbolic mode (see chmod(1)).

.PP

.Sp

.in +0.5i

-R,	--recursive	change files and directories recursively

.TE

.in

.P

.BR close " [" \-a "]"

.PP

Close idle connections.  By default only with the current server, use

\-a to close all idle connections.

.BR cls " [" OPTS "] " \fIfiles...\fP

.PP

`cls' tries to retrieve information about specified files or directories

and outputs the information according to format options. The difference between

`ls' and `cls' is that `ls' requests the server to format file listing, and

`cls' formats it itself, after retrieving all the needed information.

placeholders $0...$9 and $@, corresponding to the arguments.

.BR exit " [" bg "]"

.RB [ top ]

.RB [ parent ]

.RB [ kill ]

exit will exit from lftp or move to background if there are active jobs. If

no job is active, \fIcode\fP is passed to operating system as lftp's

termination status. If \fIcode\fP is omitted, the exit code of last

command is used.

.PP

`exit bg' forces moving to background when cmd:move-background is false.

`exit top' makes top level `shell' (internal lftp command executor) terminate.

`exit parent' terminates the parent shell when running a nested script.

`exit kill' kills all numbered jobs before exiting. The options can be combined, e.g.

`at 08:00 \-\- exit top kill &' kills all jobs and makes lftp exit at specified time.

.B fg

mput ftp://.../*

mget \-O ftp://... ftp://.../*

.De

or other combinations to get FXP transfer (directly between two FTP servers).

lftp would fallback to plain copy (via client) if FXP transfer cannot be

initiated or ftp:use-fxp is false.

.TE

.in

\fIRX\fP is an extended regular expression, just like in \fBegrep\fR(1).

.PP

\fIGP\fP is a glob pattern, e.g. `*.zip'.

.PP

Include and exclude options can be specified multiple times. It means that

a file or directory would be mirrored if it matches an include and does

not match to excludes after the include, or does not match anything

and the first check is exclude. Directories are matched with a slash appended.

.PP

Note that symbolic links are not created when uploading to remote server,

because FTP protocol cannot do it. To upload files the links refer

to, use `mirror \-RL' command (treat symbolic links as files).

.PP

For options \-\-newer\-than and \-\-older\-than you can either specify a

file or time specification like that used by \fBat\fR(1) command, e.g.

`now-7days' or `week ago'. If you specify a file, then modification time of

that file will be used.

.PP

Verbosity level can be selected using \-\-verbose=level option or by several

\-v options, e.g. \-vvv. Levels are:

.Ds

0 - no output (default)

1 - print actions

2 - +print not deleted file names (when \-e is not specified)

3 - +print directory names which are mirrored

.De

.PP

\-\-only\-newer turns off file size comparison and uploads/downloads

only newer files even if size is different. By default older files are transferred and replace newer ones.

.PP

\-\-upload\-older allows replacing newer remote files with older ones (when

the target side is remote). Some remote back-ends cannot preserve timestamps

so the default is to keep newer files.

.PP

Recursion mode can be one of `always', `never', `missing', `newer'. With

the option `newer' mirror compares timestamps of directories and enters a

directory only if it is older or missing on the target side. Be aware that

when a file changes the directory timestamp may stay the same, so mirror

won't process that directory.

.PP

The options \-\-file and \-\-directory may be used multiple times and even

mixed provided that base directories of the paths are the same.

.PP

You can mirror between two servers if you specify URLs instead of directories.

FXP is automatically used for transfers between FTP servers, if possible.

.PP

Some FTP servers hide dot-files by default (e.g. \fI.htaccess\fP), and show

them only when LIST command is used with \-a option. In such case try to use
