Description

Moving from WS_FTP, I like filezilla a lot. But I miss 2
features.

  1. Having a drop down history list of local directories. It

looks like this is almost there, since there is a similar
list on the remote side. I find I'm ftp'ing from 2 or 3
local directories constantly, and it would be nice to not
have to keep typing them in.

  1. I would prefer transfer arrows, rather than double-

clicking.

Please accept praise for Editing a remote file: once I
associate gvim with the file view/edit, editing just
worked. Several other programs I tried said they did
editing, but after bringing up the editor, the changes
never got saved on the remote side.

FYI: I also tried the free AceFTP, which has these, as
well as a bewildering combination of other unnecessary
features. I did like the ability to have open FTP
connections to two different machines, and switch with
GUI tabs, but it kept crashing and was really just too
complicated.

So while I campaign for my desired features, I do
appreciate the basic simplicity and cleanliness of filezilla.
