no. there is still lftp (http://lftp.yar.ru/) which lets you open fish:// 
URLs, e.g.:
$ lftp fish://wolf@hacktor
Password:

lftp wolf at hacktor:~> ls *.txt
-rw-rw-r--    1 wolf     wolf          720 Jan 17  2002 abuse.txt
-rw-rw-r--    1 wolf     wolf           58 Jan 17  2002 abuse2.txt
...
lftp wolf at hacktor:~> get abuse.txt
720 bytes transferred
lftp wolf at hacktor:~>

its more comfortable than plain scp, you have the commands of a normal ftp 
client available ...

regards,
wolfgang
