[Info-vax] [TCPIP V5.6] SFTP ACCVIOs

[Peter 'EPLAN' LANGSTOeGER]

I recently noted, that the sFTP client on TCPIP V5.6 (I tested ECO3 and ECO4)
crashes if a "cd" and the tab key is pressed (too much shells in use here ;-)

$ sftp
sftp> cd<tab>
Error: Not connected.

Ok, but if connected

$ SFTP localhost
user at localhost's password:
sftp> cd<tab>

PS: Isn't it a shame, that sftp (though being a utility on VMS) requires
all commands in lower case - and is still unable to specify output file
names in put or get commands - and uses ^D to exit (instead of ^Z)...
