Description : Fast file transfer program
This program transfers files from host to host
on command line (within your telnet sessions).
You may copy directories recursively, send/receive
stdin/stdout, use your own filters, accept specified
clients ... It is the fastest file transfer program
on the net! ;^)

IMO you should explain that pftp stands for
Port-File-Transfer-Program (from webpage). Plus it would be useful to
mwention that it can also stream audio/video (using UDP), set buffersize
and bandwidth etc. Otherwise people might think it's just another
version of ftp client and/or server.
