Perl. If I do something often enough then that something will usually get automated using Perl ... eventually.

I like Filezilla for those odd ball tasks that can't be automated.

Filezilla for anything I am doing personally... but for sites I work on cooperatively with other developers... dreamweaver.

Filezilla as a standalone. FireFTP (a Firefox extension) when in Firefox.

I tend to prefer Filezilla after experimenting with several different FTP clients.

slightly off topic: does anyone know how to display more than 2,000 files in the FTP clients? There seems to be a sort of limit. :?

I'm pretty sure I have many times opened folders with files 3-4 times that quantity... with CuteFTP.

On shared servers, I've run into that problem. However, I believe that it's on the FTP server end not the client end. pure-FTP server for example can be configured to only return x number files:
- '-L <max files>:<max depth>': To avoid stupid denial-of-service attacks (or just CPU hogs), Pure-FTPd never displays more than 2000 files in response to an 'ls' command. Also, a recursive 'ls' (-R) never goes further than 5 subdirectories. You can increase/decrease those limits with the '-L' option.

Same here. Although i've found a need to not open those folders anymore.

WS_FTP for me. It was the only thing I could use without UGH!ing at the features (or lack thereof). Also, it just feels right to me. It used to be free for personal use, but I've ended up purchasing the program now that they've changed their liscensing.

Someone here told me about WinSCP (I think it was either arborint or Ambush Commander). That is all I use at work. At home, like I said, it is either Filezilla or FireFTP. But WinSCP is freaking gnarly.

I have been using CuteFTP for what seems like forever. I have tried others along the way, but keep going back to it even though it is nothing special.
