How to do remote compress and decompression? #150

If i connect to sftp, how to do remote compress and decompress of zip/tar.gz files?

wdlkmpx commented 1 year ago

Is this something that works in filezilla?

Unless it's feature of the sftp protocol, then it will be impossible to implement in gftp

Right now this comes to mind: 1) download file 2) decompress file 3) recursively upload uncompressed files

....

Unless it's something like this https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/315050/execute-command-in-sftp-connection-through-script

I really have no idea
