Download files from remote to local?
Get sftp object as usual, then e.g.:

for f in sftp.listdir(rdir):
    lf = os.path.join(opts.tmpdir, f)
    sftp.get(rdir + "/" + f, lf)

sftp.get() uses path + "/" + basename instead
of os.path.join() because the latter uses local
pathname conventions which may or may not be
appropriate for remote system.
