gFTP is a free multithreaded file transfer client for *NIX based machines running X11R6 or later. gFTP has text and GTK+ 1.2/2.x interfaces and supports the FTP, FTPS (control connection only), HTTP, HTTPS, and SSH protocols and has FTP and HTTP proxy server support. It supports UNIX, EPLF, Novell, MacOS, VMS, MVS, and NT (DOS) style directory listings, and has a bookmarks menu that allows you to quickly connect to remote sites. The code is fully internationalized and there are currently 40 translations available.

Requirements:

· GTK+ 1.2.3 or higher. GTK+/Glib is included with most systems now. If you don't have it installed, you may want to check to see if your vendor has a package available. If not, you can download the latest version of GTK+ and Glib from ftp://ftp.gtk.org/pub/gtk. gFTP will work with version 1.2 or 2.x of GTK+, I would suggest using GTK+ 2.x, but installing GTK+ 2.x does require installing more packages onto your system.
· pthread libraries. If you have a libc6 based machine (Debian 2.x+, Red Hat 5.x+), you should already have the pthread libraries installed. If you have a libc5 based machine, you will need to install LinuxThreads. You can download it from my website here. If you are running a pretty modern Linux distribution, this shouldn't be an issue. Also, if you don't have LinuxThreads installed, you most likely don't have thread safe X libraries. You must have thread safe X libraries or gFTP will constantly crash. You can download some thread safe X libraries off my website here. If you are on a platform other than GNU/Linux, you may want to take a look at the FSU Pthreads library.
· I would recommend running X in at least 800x600 mode.
