Thanks.  Now, is there a way to get lftp to prompt me for the password if
the key needs one, and not prompt me if it doesn't?

As far as I can tell, I can either specify

  open sftp://[email protected]

and always be prompted, or

  open sftp://cygwin:@cygwin.com

and never be prompted.  Is there a way to be prompted if and only if the
key needs to be decrypted?
