+`tnftp' (formerly lukemftp) is what many users affectionately call the enhanced
+ftp client in NetBSD.
+
+The enhancements over the standard ftp client in 4.4BSD include:
+ * command-line editing within ftp
+ * command-line fetching of URLS, including support for:
+ - http proxies (c.f: $http_proxy, $ftp_proxy)
+ - authentication
+ * context sensitive command and filename completion
+ * dynamic progress bar
+ * IPv6 support (from the WIDE project)
+ * modification time preservation
+ * paging of local and remote files, and of directory listings
+ (c.f: `lpage', `page', `pdir')
+ * passive mode support, with fallback to active mode
+ * `set option' override of ftp environment variables
+ * socks4/socks5 support
+ * TIS Firewall Toolkit gate ftp proxy support (c.f: `gate')
+ * transfer-rate throttling (c.f: `-T', `rate')
