NAME

SYNOPSIS

       filezilla
       filezilla [-l <logontype>] <FTP URL>
       filezilla -h|-s|-v
       filezilla -c <site>

DESCRIPTION

       FileZilla is a powerful client for plain FTP, FTP over SSL/TLS (FTPS) and the SSH File Transfer Protocol (SFTP).

OPTIONS

       -c <site>, --site <site>
	      Connect  to  the given site from the Site Manager.  Site has to be given as complete path, with a slash as separation character. Any
	      slash or backslash that is part of a segment has to be escaped with a backslash. Path has to be prefixed with  0	for  user  defined
	      entries or 1 for default entries. Site path may not contain double quotation marks.

	      Example: filezilla -c 0/foo/bar/sl/ash connects to the user site sl/ash in the site directory foo/bar

	      May not be used together with -s nor with URL parameter.

       -h, --help
	      Displays a help dialog listing these commandline options.

       -l <logontype>, --logontype <logontype>
	      Set a special logontype, can only be used in combination with a FTP URL as argument.

	      Logontype has to be either ask or interactive. If -l isn't given, the normal logontype is used.

       -s, --sitemanager
	      Start with Site Manager opened. May not be used together with -c nor with URL parameter.

       -v, --version
	      Display version number of FileZilla.
