Which works nicely. You have to escape the shell glob character so that
ssh gets to see it though:
local% scp remote:files_I_want/\* .
will copy all the files in the directory to the local machine. What I'm
personally missing is a way to send files over an already opened ssh login
session and thereby avoiding having to authenticate myself again which
does take some time. A streaming protocols for all the files being
transfered would also be nice, on a link with some delay each new file
generates a delay due to the round trip time.
