Pete's FTP v0.2 released!
« on: February 20, 2008, 01:53:26 PM »
Pete's FTP is an advanced OS4 native FTP/SFTP client.

You can download it from here:

http://www.os4depot.net/?function=showfile&file=network/ftp/pftp.lha

Features:

 * Fully multithreaded design
 * (S)FTP to (S)FTP transfers (any combination)
 * Multiple windows (for local, SFTP and FTP connections)
 * Browsing while downloading
 * Drag and drop
 * Reaction GUI
 * Pause and resume transfers
 * Resume files that are already present at the target
 * Transferring of whole directories with contents
 * Deletion of directories with all contents
 * Passive and active transfers supported
 * Optional automatic binary/ascii mode setting
 * AISS toolbars
 * Detailed HTML documentation
 * Localised (translations welcome :-)


Changes since v0.1:

- Now copes with multi-line responses that don't
  start every line with a code and a dash. Thanks
  to James Carroll for the report.
- Fixed a DSI that could occasionally happen during
  FTP to FTP transfers.
- Properly copes with 125 responses for the LIST
  command. Thanks to Dwayne Jarvis for the report.
- Now updates CPS information for active transfers
  even when they stall.
- When warning you about potentially overwriting
  a local file, it gives you the current stats
  about the existing files size and date rather
  than the ones in the local browser, in case they
  have changed in the meantime.
- When sending a local file, it rechecks the local
  files length before starting the transfer instead
  of relying on the possibly stale value in the
  local browser window.
- Properly copes with servers that don't put a
  leading zero in the hours column. Thanks to
  Dwayne Jarvis for his help nailing this one.
- Reordered the transfer queue columns so that the
  basic information is all to the left and the
  source/destination directories are at the far
  end (file,%,cps,srcdir,destdir instead of
  srcdir/file,destdir,%,cps).
- You can now specify the path to the ssh
  executable if you don't wish to keep it in the
  system searchpath. Simply specify the path where
  ssh resides in a "SSHPATH" tooltype. Sorry I
  can't remember who suggested this.
- You can now specify a local path to go to when
  you connect to a server (see docs).
- Transfers in the queue now have a fancy progress
  bar behind the percentage readout.
- Passwords are now encrypted in the .servers file.
  Old .server files with plaintext passwords will
  be automatically converted when you quit PFTP
  or connect to a server.

Did you write that news item with a Commodore 128 in 64 mode?  :-P

No, but that would be a very cool way to do it ;-)
