Yes, no problem, attached to this email is a test program... As might be
noticed from it, which wasn't mentioned until now, I'm running this on
win32. The code here is based on the small test program listed in Andrei
Jakab's guide on how to build libcurl with SSH support with visual
studio 2008, as that was my starting point for trying out libcurl.
The actual code that performs anything is isolated in it's own function,
so it should be easy to move this out and remove the windows
dependencies. It's so small it shouldn't be any problems getting a grasp
of, it simply needs changing a variable to the address of a existing
SFTP server, a path to possible files, and the for-loop + sprintf part
might be looked at to decide which files to get.
As for the libssh2 debug/trace details, the answer's no, I haven't
looked into that yet.
