COMMON DATA TYPES

       subsystem_spec() = {subsystem_name(), {channel_callback(), channel_init_args()}}

       subsystem_name() = "sftp"

       channel_callback() = atom() - Name of the erlang module implementing the subsystem using the ssh_channel behavior see ssh_channel(3erl)

       channel_init_args() = list() - The one given as argument to function subsystem_spec/1.

EXPORTS

       subsystem_spec(Options) -> subsystem_spec()

	      Types  Options = [{Option, Value}]

	      Should be used together with ssh:daemon/[1,2,3]

	      Options are:

		{cwd, String} :
		  Sets the initial current working directory for the server.

		{file_handler, CallbackModule} :
		  Determines  which  module to call for communicating with the file server. Default value is ssh_sftpd_file that uses the file and
		  filelib API:s to access the standard OTP file server. This option may be used to plug in the use of other file servers.

		{max_files, Integer} :
		  The default value is 0 , which means that there is no upper limit. If supplied, the number of filenames  returned  to  the  sftp
		  client per READDIR request, is limited to at most the given value.

		{root, String} :
		  Sets	the  sftp root directory. The user will then not be able to see any files above this root. If for instance the root is set
		  to /tmp the user will see this directory as / and if the user does cd /etc the user will end up in /tmp/etc .
