zsh/Functions/Zftp/zfgcp

# function zfgcp {
# ZFTP get as copy:  i.e. first arguments are remote, last is local.
# Supposed to work exactly like a normal copy otherwise, i.e.
#  zfgcp rfile lfile
# or
#  zfgcp rfile1 rfile2 rfile3 ... ldir
# Options:
#   -G   don't to remote globbing, else do
#   -t   update the local file times to the same time as the remote.
#        Currently this only works if you have the `perl' command,
#        and that perl is version 5 with the standard library.
#        See the function zfrtime for more gory details.
#
# If there is no current connection, try to use the existing set of open
# parameters to establish one and close it immediately afterwards.
