cuteftp

CuteFTP is a FTP client that allows you to transfer files to and from an FTP server. It has inherited many of the features from successful predecessors; automatic and manual resume of interrupted transfers, support for different types of FTP servers, progress tracking and log reporting are just a few of its powerful features.

The most popular features from CuteFTP, the same easy-to-use interface and Site Manager, were implemented in CuteFTP Mac while following the Aqua Human Interface Guidelines, resulting in a program that is familiar to users of both platforms.

With CuteFTP Mac, users can conduct FTP transfers by simply dragging and dropping files from one side of their computer screen to the other.

The two-pane interface shows local files on the left and remote files on the right. Users can also save addresses, user names and passwords for one-click connection to FTP sites. Auto-Resume detects broken transfers and automatically restarts them until complete. Also, CuteFTP Mac has support for more than a dozen different host types allowing users to connect to virtually every type of FTP server on the World Wide Web.

Here are some key features of "CuteFTP":

INTERFACE

· Aqua® Human Interface Guidelines
· CuteFTP Mac delivers a well-organized and cohesive user experience by strictly adhering to interface feature, behavior and appearance rules as defined under the Aqua Human Interface Guidelines for the Mac OS.
· Drag & Drop

NAVIGATION & MANAGEMENT

· File & Folder Management
· With CuteFTP Mac you can create new folders, rename or delete existing files or folders, and use Cut, Copy, and Paste on files or whole folder trees, on both your hard drive, and remote FTP servers.
