Folks, this will work with any of the above!!
I'm posting this now, as I've not seen anyone mention this on the list.
I have been using FileZilla now for some time - found this free client
after frying my motherboard and not wanting to pay for CuteFTP anymore.
But it is a bit of a pain to use with the i - it knows nothing about
"name format" in any of its choices for server type. So I've been putting
site namefmt 1
into the "Enter custom command..." item on the Server menu.
Well, I got tired of that pretty quickly. So I dug around, finally, for
some kind of scripting or something that would let me run that command,
every time I connect to an i. And there is!!
In the location
%appdata%\FileZilla
is a file called
sitemanager.xml
First, you have to have set up a connection in the Site Manager -
QuickConnect will not let you do this. Open that file in a text editor
or XML editor.
Look for your i in one of the <Server> child elements within the
<Servers> child element. There will be all kinds of children within the
<Server> element, including <Host> and <Port>. Just insert another
element within your <Server> that looks like this -
<PostLoginCommands>
<Command>site namefmt 1</Command>
</PostLoginCommands>
I put it after the <Port> element - no biggy where it goes. And then you
get the nice listing, even if you have library naming as the default on
your FTP server.
You can any command you want in there. I've found no need for anything
else, however.
Oh, BTW - your passwords are stored in the clear in sitemanage.xml -
don't know if there's a way to have them stored and encrypted.
