FTP which program do you use?

XML, Perl, Python, and other languages can be discussed here, even if it isn't PHP (We might forgive you).

FTP which program do you use?

Post by irealms »

I have used act ftp, core ftp, both of which crashed now and again in windows. Atm i'm back to bullet ftp, but i can't figure out how to make it delete folders with files inside.

Any good ftp programs you'd reccomend? Or can you solve my delete problem? :)

Thanks in advance for any help and input.

SmartFTP is a good one. I would suggest it. It also has a free version.

Filezilla all the way. Very reliable, very versatile, slick and intuitive GUI - awesome. And it's Open Source too! :)

Real programmers don't comment their code. If it was hard to write, it should be hard to understand.

I could not agree more. Plus there is also filezilla FTP server, which is nice.

I use the free smartftp on win and gftp on linux. When im not on my computer though i just do it from cmd because after logging in you really just need to use cd,put, and get.
