## Historique du projet et usages

YAFC is Yet Another FTP Client, a console FTP client with shell-like conveniences such as completion, cached listings, bookmarks, recursive operations, proxy support, and SFTP support. Its appeal is the old Unix niche of making interactive FTP feel closer to a real file-management shell.

### Historique du projet

The current upstream repository preserves YAFC's older copyright lineage: the main program copyright is attributed to Martin Hedenfalk for 1998-2001, while renewed maintenance from 2011 is credited to Carles Pages, Sebastian Ramacher, and Josh Heidenreich. The GitHub repository was created in 2011 and is the current source-control home cited by the package.

The NEWS file shows the tool evolving from a traditional FTP client into a broader file-transfer shell: 1.0 added cache timeout and SFTP conveniences, 1.2.0 moved SFTP transport to libssh and added IPv6, and the 1.3 line removed Kerberos 4 while keeping Kerberos 5-era support.

### Historique d'adoption

YAFC's adoption has been modest and Unix-admin oriented. Its feature set reflects the workflows of users who still need scriptable or interactive FTP-family access but want readline-style navigation, persistent bookmarks, recursive transfers, and queued operations instead of a bare `ftp(1)` session.

### Modes d'utilisation

Typical use is interactive: connect to an FTP, FTPS, SSH/SFTP, or proxied endpoint, navigate with completion and cached directory listings, and run recursive get, put, remove, list, or FXP-style transfers. The README also calls out nohup mode, tagging files for later transfer, local command redirection, and autologin/bookmark support.

### Pourquoi les passionnés de paquets s'y intéressent

YAFC is a small example of a once-common package category: terminal FTP clients that added comfort features before web UIs, cloud object storage CLIs, and ubiquitous rsync/SSH workflows displaced much FTP usage. It remains interesting mostly as a compatibility and operator-convenience tool.

### Chronologie

- 1998-2001: The preserved copyright notice attributes YAFC's main early implementation to Martin Hedenfalk.
- 2011: The current GitHub repository was created and the maintained copyright block begins.
- 1.2.0 era: The NEWS file records libssh-backed SFTP transport and IPv6 support.
- 1.3.0 era: Kerberos 4 support was dropped while the codebase was cleaned up for more modern C tooling.

### Related projects

- YAFC sits near traditional `ftp(1)`, lftp, ncftp, FileZilla, and OpenSSH SFTP workflows, but with a narrower interactive terminal-client identity.
