FTP 0.5 for GNUstep and Mac

I'm happy to announce a new release of FTP, the file transfer application of the GNUstep Application Project.

It is designed for GNUstep and completely native on the Mac too, with version 0.5 being available as a binary for both for PPC and Intel, as well, of course, as the usual source tarball for Unix.
(Please wait for the GNU.org mirrors to propagate the files or grab the sources from SVN)

There are some new features as well as bug fixes:
  • Creation of local and remote directories
  • Command to refresh the current directory listing, local and remote
  • File renaming, local and remote
  • Drag&Drop for uploading a file from GWorkspace/Finder to remote file panel
  • better handling of local and remote write errors
  • better parsing of File Sizes returned by FTP servers
  • better handling of file adding to the views, so that less "refresh" is needed
  • Bug fixes with multiple selection uploads
  • Code cleanup for better portability (gcc/clang, old and new runtime, Cocoa)
