openssh unix dev - Mar 2002 - [Bug 181] Undocumented mget and mput in sftp

http://bugzilla.mindrot.org/show_bug.cgi?id=181

 mget and mput are just "aliased" commands to get and put, I'm
assuming for some
kind of compatability.  mget and mput expect the get and put parameters and DO
NOT function like FTP-based mget and mput (i.e. mget file1 file2.. file#). 
I'd
be happy to submit a patch for this, but not sure it's really useful.

  There's been work on a status-bar by Ben, but I'm not sure the state
of it.
Don't know about prompt.

i don't like to see mget and mput in sftp. it's such an ugly user
interface

- prompt I could see adding, but default to 'no'.
- hash has no real business, but a progress meter would be nice.  The
main issue is handling it correctly for sftp protocol (which is not as
easy as scp since it supports out of order transfers)
- mget/mput should really not exist either since they don't act like what 
people expect.

Can we remove mget/mput since they are just alias to get/put and don't act
the
way people expect them to?
