Trasnfers on TeraGrid using the tgcp> command.

Example Listing

tgcp large file

Transfer of a large file from NCSA to SDSC using the TeraGrid copy (tgcp) tool.

Passing the -big option to tgcp tells it to employ striping.
The URL sytax is more relaxed here. Basically, you get the third party benifits without all the typing.
Notice that the full globus-url-copy comand is printed. This is a good way to develop globus-url-copy commands.
