Yes, I know about the putty suite. (First thing I download whenever I'm
forced to sit on a windows computer. ;)
The problem with psftp and pscp, is that they're command line tools.
This is all well and good for people who like it, but since most of our
students only use windows and gui programs, they wouldn't like having to
use cli. Never overestimate your users. ;)
