Hello,
I would like to announce the second version of my FTP client. Here are
some of the features and the cahnges from the first version:
Features
* Distributed under the terms of the GNU Public License Agreement
* Written in C and uses GTK+ 1.1.x+ for the GUI
* Multithreaded to allow for simultaneous downloads
* File transfer queues to allow for downloading multiple files
* Extensive connection manager that allows having different
categories, each containing multiple sites to help manage ftp site
lists
* Supports resuming interrupted file transfers
* Supports associating icons with particular file extensions in the
listboxes
Changes from 0.1 to 0.2
* Completely rewritten in gtk instead of Motif
* Fixed problems with parsing of some directory listings
* Fixed problems with reading responses from certain FTP servers
* Supports connecting to a FTP server via command line parameters.
You can now type: gftp user:pass@ftp-site:port/directory. You
don't have to specify all of the options, like user:pass, port and
directory.
* More informative error messages
* Sorting capabilites in the listboxes
* Colorized text in the log window
* Allows saving the text in the log window to a file
* Added disconnect from ftp server
* Various code cleanups
* Removed about dialog box
You can download it at my web site at http://www.newwave.net/~masneyb I
also have some screen shots available on there too.
