Fugu: A nice graphical front-end to sftp and more...
Authored by: Mikey-San on Feb 09, '04 10:49:40AM

If you've used Transmit, well, Fugu's UI will look like a substandard ripoff.

Sorry.

sorry to say, but Transmit's layout is far from original - shades of Fetch and countless PC FTP apps that predate it

both are nice programs tho, I use Fugu for simple jobs because it is simply much faster than Transmit and it uses my SSH keys

Transmit (which I registered) I keep around for FTP and more complicated SFTP jobs since Fugu can't handle some things Transmit does

Agreed

Transmit's had this ability for a long time. After fooling around with about 15 different FTP apps for the last year, Transmit is the best. Transmit still has some limitations (like stopping when it runs into an icon) but overall, is much better than other applications.

I don't mind that, since I didn't think much of Transmit's interface in the first place.

Transmit is the the only ripoff

Transmit is by far not the first to use that paradigm for display of local and remote systems, and will not be the last.

Fugu is very capable, is ridiculously faster than Transmit, and, best of all, is completely free.
