Simple ftp with Gftp
Whenever I need to use the ftp protocol to transfer files in Linux I always turn to one application: Gftp. Gftp is a GTK+ application that makes ftp as simple as it gets. Released under the GPL, Gftp has a lot of features (for an ftp client) and installs on most *NIX machines. The only requirements for installation are GTK+ 1.2.3 or higher, the pthreads library, and (of course) X Windows.
Gftp has a very user-friendly interface that any user can understand without having to look at much documentation at all. The only downfall to Gftp is that it hasn't been updated since 1/11/2008. Let's take a look at this single-minded application.
