so long and thanks for all the fish!

So I used to love winscp over on windows, but I wasnt sure about what was around for linux that did the same easy copy from remote servers in a nice gui way.
till someone mentioned i should try fish!

open up konqueror and type
fish://user@serverurl

and you should get prompted for your password.

Nice and simple!

*addendum*
As i now use Gnome rather than KDE I found Nautilus doesn't support the fish protocol, however if you select File and then Connect to server you can select ssh as a protocol and do the same thing, alternatively use SSHFS
