ftp requires installing an FTP server, which is a PITA to get right.

If you have your ssh keys set up properly, it's kind of like so:
(to copy file1 on host1 to host2 directory /home/me/)
host1:~: scp file1 user@host2:/home/me/
(to recursively copy all of dir1 to host2 /home/me/)
host1:~: scp -r dir1 user@host2:/home/me/
If your ~/.ssh/config is set up properly, you can omit the user@ part
and probably not have to put in a password. Also, KDE's dolphin has the
fish://user@host/ KIOslave, which is _very useful_ if you like GUI file
managers.
