Got a question about technology? Ask it here. Discussion of hardware, software, TiVos, multi-region DVDs, Windows, Macs, LINUX, hand-helds, iPods, anything tech related. Better than any helpdesk!
'Scuse the interruption, since I so seldom post, but CuteFTP and SmartFTP are good and cheap graphical ftp clients and easily found on the web. That said, InterSoft's graphical ftp client bundled with their SmartTerm terminal emulator is the One True Client....

CuteFTP drives me nuts. I ended up buying WSFTP for my PC. Haven't settled on something for the Mac yet -- still use commandline here.
Have you tried Cyberduck? I have not. [link]
I'm morally opposed to spending $ on an FTP program. Dunno why - it just seems to me that FTP programs should be free.
On the Mac, I really used to like Fetch when it was free....sigh.
Have you tried Cyberduck?
Well, it passes the "cute name" test. Open source too.
support for many Mac OS X system technologies such as Spotlight, Bonjour, the Keychain and AppleScript.
Cool. I'll have to give it a try.
What's Bonjour?
Filezilla for the PC does everything I've needed: [link]
I get fucking tired of the typing. And I do a lot of updating of all those provocateuse sites -- not only do I need to be able to keep locations in synch, I need to be able to quickly navigate directory trees and identify the next available filename in a sequence.
So I mostly do that work from the PC. But now I'm going to try the duck. Thanks, DCJ!
Cyberduck broke every website I uploaded files to. (The same files, uploaded via Cpanel's file manager, worked fine. Uploaded via Cyberduck, they broke the site.) So I stopped using it.
