Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

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!

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

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.

I'm a fan of Transmit.

God, I am so used to command line ftp that anything else seems painful and whacko (unix solaris and linux. It's the butter for our bread in this business.)

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Cyberduck broke every website I uploaded files to.

Do you know what (specifically) the duck did? That seems odd to me. Some sort of permissions issue?

I have no clue. No other FTP program I've used has ever had this problem, and honestly, Cyberduck wasn't worth the effort to figure it out.

Well, the duck let me upload a JPG of Paul Walker just fine, so we're on speaking terms for the nonce.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

I'm a fan of Transmit.
Me too. Fetch, if I have to though.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

I use WS_FTP for Windows. The freeware version does everything I need it to do.

I use CoffeeCup DirectFTP at home. At work we don't have dedicated FTP software, we just use IE. Works well enough, given that most of our clients that we need to FTP with aren't very sophisticated.
