SYNOPSIS
fzsftp [options] [user@host]
DESCRIPTION
fzsftp is the SFTP backend module of FileZilla, based on the psftp component of PuTTY. It is called internally by the FileZilla GUI to handle SSH File Transfer Protocol connections and is not intended for direct interactive use.The tool communicates with the FileZilla process via stdin/stdout. It supports PuTTY-format (.ppk) keys natively, batch file processing, and various SSH connection options inherited from PuTTY.

CAVEATS
Not intended to be used directly; it is called internally by FileZilla. Password on command line is insecure and visible in process listings. PPK keys need conversion for use with other SSH clients.
