Installing gFTP, the efficient FTP Client for Linux.
gFTP is a lightweight FTP client written in C using GLib and GTK+. It has both a terminal and GUI option to make everybody happy. I prefer gFTP over other clients like filezilla due to its simple look and its easy navigation and setup. Another great thing about gFTP is that it is licenced under the GNU Public License Agreement.
gFTP features
-simultaneous downloads,
-resuming of interrupted file transfers,
-file transfer queues,
-downloading of entire directories,
-FTP and HTTP proxy support,
-remote directory caching,
-passive and non-passive file transfers,
-drag-n-drop support,
-bookmarks menu,
-support FXP transfers,
-stop button, and many more features.
Installation
gFTP is in the network section of the Universe Repository so installation is easy. Open synaptic package manager and search for gftp. After installation look in you gnome-menu under Internet > gFTP.
The preferences window is available under the FTP menu > Options, it makes all you FTP needs easy to configure.
