gFTP

Originately developped for Gnome, it is from now on available for KDE and in particular installed by default on Mepis and Knoppix.

It was written in C language and has an interface:

in command line,
or graphic interface with library GTK+ 1.2/2.x.

It has:

resumption for interrupted transfers,
complete bookmarks management (highly handy to remember servers IP addresses),
graphic interface easy to use, clear and functional (ex-users of FileZilla will be immediately comfortable with it),
proxies, FTP and HTTP management.

It allows to:

"dragg and drop" between its two windows,
make several transfers at the same time (on the same server with the proviso for having rights for a multi-session or on several servers),
define a program for visualization (on my computer Mozilla) and files edition (on my computer it is BlueFish), which makes possible to work directly on the server,
have the passive mode selected by defect, which handy for those on cable connection as me...
compare its two windows (very handy to download only what was modified):
- then gFTP use files sizes, names or modification dates,
- then it selects the different files on the local disc and the waiter,
- it is then enough to click on one of the two arrows for download or upload selected files,
read those directory types: UNIX, EPLF, Novell, Mac OS, VMS, MVS & NT (DOS).

It manages following protocols:

FXP (File eXchange Protocol) since the version 2.0.7b, therefore one can to:
- connect itself to two sites, the first in the window of left, the second on right-hand side,
- and transfer files from one to another without passing by our local disc (saving in personal band),
but also FTP (we would have suspected it),
FTPS or protected ftp (only control at connection),
HTTP,
HTTPS or safe HTTP,
SSH.

Widely as ergonomic as FileZilla on MS Windows, it is functionally much richer, and since version 2.0.17 allows to memorize passwords while passing by the bookmarks :)
