 <para>Allows you to access another computer's files using the <emphasis>S</emphasis>ecure <emphasis>SH</emphasis>ell (<acronym>SSH</acronym>) protocol.  The remote computer needs to be running the <acronym>SSH</acronym> daemon, but the remainder of the protocol uses standard commandline tools as discussed below.</para>
 
 <para>You can use the fish KIO worker like this:
 <userinput>fish://<replaceable>hostname</replaceable></userinput> or <userinput>fish://<replaceable>username</replaceable>@<replaceable>hostname</replaceable></userinput>.</para>
 
 <note><para>You need to use double forward slashes.</para></note>
 
 <para>You can omit the <replaceable>username</replaceable> (and the trailing
 @ symbol) if you have the same username on both computers.</para>
 
 <para>You can add a password in the format:
 <userinput>fish://<replaceable>username</replaceable>:<replaceable>password</replaceable>@<replaceable>hostname</replaceable></userinput>
 but it is not necessary as you will be prompted for one if it is not
 supplied.</para>
 
 <para>If you are running the <acronym>SSH</acronym> daemon on a non-standard
 port, you can specify that port using the normal &URL; syntax as shown
 below:
 <userinput>fish://<replaceable>hostname</replaceable>:<replaceable>portnumber</replaceable></userinput>.</para>
 
 <para>Fish should work with any roughly <acronym>POSIX</acronym> compatible
 &UNIX; based remote computer. It uses the shell commands
 <command>cat</command>, <command>chgrp</command>,
 <command>chmod</command>, <command>chown</command>,
 <command>cp</command>, <command>dd</command>,
 <command>env</command>, <command>expr</command>,
 <command>grep</command>, <command>ls</command>,
 <command>mkdir</command>, <command>mv</command>,
 <command>rm</command>, <command>rmdir</command>,
 <command>sed</command>,
 and <command>wc</command>. Fish starts
 <command>/bin/sh</command> as its shell and expects it to be a
 Bourne shell (or compatible, like <command>bash</command>).
 If the <command>sed</command> and
 <command>file</command> commands are available, as well as a
 <filename>/etc/apache/magic</filename> file with &MIME; type
 signatures, these will be used to guess &MIME; types.
 </para>
 
 <para>If <application>Perl</application> is available on the remote
 machine, it will be used instead. Then only <command>env</command> and
 <command>/bin/sh</command> are needed. Using
 <application>Perl</application> has the additional benefit of being
 faster.</para>
 
 <para>Fish may even work on &Windows; machines, if tools like
 <application>Cygwin</application> are installed.  All the above
 utilities must be in the system <envar>PATH</envar>, and the initial
 shell must be able to process the command <command>echo
 FISH:;/bin/sh</command> correctly.</para>
