Session URL

On command-line and in parameters of scripting command open, you can, in addition to using stored-session name, specify an ad-hoc session using URL.

The syntax is:

[ sftp|ftp|scp:// ][ <user> [ :password ] @ ] <host> [ :<port> ]

Special characters (like @ in username) can be encoded using %XX syntax, where XX is hexadecimal ASCII code.

Some common examples:

• space: %20 or +
• %: %25 (percent sign)
• +: %2B (plus sign)
• /: %2F (slash)
• @: %40 (at sign)
