Created attachment 1565 [details] Correct the sftp syntax to match actual behaviour The second and third usage forms in the sftp(1) man page incorrectly indicate that a targe hostname is optional. An extraneous pair of square brackets should be removed. The attached patch fixes the syntax in the man page and in the sftp usage output.
