What FTP client you use?

[Boofo]

I used to use FTP Pro until I got Windows Commander. I have used nothing else for FTP since. All hacks that I have installed (well over 100) have been edited and uploaded in Windows Commander. To me there is nothing faster or easier to use and with as many options you can set as is with this program. It is well worth 10 times the 28 dollars (USD) I paid to register it. Just my 4.5 cents worth (inflation again).

BTW: the new vesrion (5.0) is multi-threaded, also.

But when I need to upload a lot of files at once I use LeechFTP (multithreaded ) (yep, it's still on the net, just search good enough )

steve, i'm curious about your method. you are the first person i heard telling me he doesnt use a ftp client. how is that possible.. can you elaboare on this? thanks. i also use SSH to connect to my server.

When I log into my Linux server with ssh, I simply use the command 'sz' to download and 'rx' to upload files. I have no need for ftp to manage my site at all. I do everything from the shell (except for the Admin CP of course.) This includes zip and unzipping files ('zip', 'unzip') and all text editing ('pico').

I do occasionally need to access someone else's ftp server to help them out with a problem fronm the vB Support System. In thats case I use the ncftp client that's on my Linux server.

lol it was worth a try ... but still the reason i loved cuteftp was beacause u cud edit the php files thru the ftp without having to do the downloadind, editing and uploading... it was simple and easy....

are there any other free ftp's where u can do that?

Last night, I picked up the slickest little program I have ever seen. It's called Ultra Edit and it is a programmers dream. I just got through editing about 5 php files on my site all in Ultra edit through it's FTP option. It has the tag option so you can load all of the files at once in Ultra edit and switch the tabs bewteen them. And when you save the files, it uploads them back to the site automatically. It has code syntaxing, a functions list and a whole you-know-what load of options and stuff I will probably never get all figured out. If you've never seen or heard of it, you have got to check it out. If you have, then you know what I am talking about. They just released version 9.10 which now has unlimited file size and all sorts of new stuff. The FTP part if it is slick! This is one of those do-it-all programs.

I use SecureFX, as well as SecureCRT for my SSH needs. Both great pieces of software!

where can u get ultra-edit from??

[Boofo]

Thanks to Chen, he steered me to an editor that is even better than Ultra Edit. It is called Edit Plus 2 and you can get it at:

Edit Plus 2

If you still want Ultra edit, let me know and I can give you the URL for that, too. But, trust me, you won't want it after you check Edit Plus out.
