+If the \c{-ls} option is given, no files are transferred; instead,
+remote files are listed. Only a hostname specification and
+optional remote file specification need be given. For example:
+
+\c pscp -ls fred@example.com:dir1
+
+The SCP protocol does not contain within itself a means of listing
+files. If SCP is in use, this option therefore assumes that the
+server responds appropriately to the command \c{ls\_-la};
+this may not work with all servers.
+
+If SFTP is in use, this option should work with all servers.
