Review: Filezilla FTP Client
Submitted by rimian on Mon, 12/11/2006 - 08:34
Filezilla is the free FTP client for Windows that Supports FTP, SFTP, and FTPS (FTP over SSL/TLS). It was voted Project of the Month on SourceForge.net and has become an popular newtworking tool for many Windows users.
I find it to be simple to use and reasonably reliable. It support multiple connections and queue managment so you can recover if you FTP server times out during upload of large files.
Beta 3 is currently under developement which will offer auto update, firewall support and be available cross platform!

Yeah, I've been using Filezilla for a few months now and love it! It's my favourite FTP client.
It would be good if you could get it to skip certain directories like ".svn" and stuff. Does anyone know about that?

Deleted files will be erased and not moved to the recycle bin.F5:Refreshes local and remote file and folder viewsTab:Switches to the next viewCtrl+C:Stops the current operationCtrl+D:Disconnects from serverCtrl+Q:Connects to the server entered in the Quickconnect barCtrl+R:Reconnects to serverCtrl+S:Opens the Site ManagerCtrl+T:Shows or hides the treeviewI worked out how to get filezilla to skip svn files. Don't upload them in the first place by exporting the SVN directory. This removes all the .svn files.
Ported to Linux
Filezilla has been ported to Linux! It's in Ubuntu's respository too. It works quite nicely.
