Summary: Sophisticated command line file transfer program
Description:

lftp is a file retrieving tool that supports FTP and HTTP protocols under
both IPv4 and IPv6.  lftp has an amazing set of features, while preserving
its interface as simple and easy as possible.

The main two advantages over other ftp clients are reliability and ability
to perform tasks in background.  It will reconnect and reget the file being
transferred if the connection broke.  You can start a transfer in background
and continue browsing the ftp site.  It does this all in one process.  When
you have started background jobs and feel you are done, you can just exit
lftp and it automatically moves to nohup mode and completes the transfers.
It also has such nice features as reput and mirror.  And it can download a
file faster using multiple connections.

lftp can also be scriptable, it can be used to mirror sites, it lets you
copy files among remote servers (even between FTP and HTTP).  It has an
extensive online help.  It supports bookmarks, and connecting to several
ftp/http sites at the same time.

This package also includes lftpget - a simple non-interactive tool for
downloading files.
