I can have as many open connections as I want, it's on the LAN. But I
would _prefer_ just one terminal window for both commands (SSH) and
file transfers.

sftp is to ftp what ssh is to telnet. You did not have a telnet shell
in the past when connecting through ftp.

If you can only have one connection and need both shell and transfer
access, someone suggested sshfs earlier.
