If you're trying to ssh to a remote box to find a file, and then you're using scp to copy that file, you can combine these two steps using "fish". On the local machine, open a konqueror browser window and type in the url "fish://[EMAIL PROTECTED]". It will open a file browser that uses SSH to browse and transfer files. It's a handy little utility. As far as I know, it's only supported by konqueror.
I believe lftp supports it too, if you need a command line client. Of course, rsync supports ssh as a transport too and only copies the parts of the file that are different. Very useful for backing up data that doesn't change much.
