Most are console based, some +feature a graphical user interface. What most clients are missing is support +for latest or not so common technologies like ZeroConf, TLS/SSL or FXP (just +to name a few), accompanied by a decent user interface that tries to support +the user instead of frustrating him/her. + +KFTPGrabber tries to make a complete FTP client solution with support for +plugins, scripting and everything else the users needs, based on the +latest technologies provided by KDE. + +Here are some of the features: + + - Multiple FTP sessions (tabs) + - Transfer queue + - TLS/SSL support for encrypted connections (implicit and explicit) + - Partial X509 certificate support for authentication + - FXP transfer support (site-to-site) + - OTP (one time password) support - S/Key, MD5, RMD160, SHA1 + - Drag&Drop support + - Site bookmarking + - Encrypted bookmark support (password can be saved to KWallet) + - Distributed FTP support (PRET) + - SSCN and CPSV support + - Skiplist + - ZeroConf (aka. Rendezvous) support for local site discovery + - Bookmark sharing with Kopete contacts (KDE >= 3.3) + - Bookmark import plugins + - Support for SFTP protocol [experimental] + +This file was last updated with relevance to KFTPGrabber 0.8.0 + + +-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- + DEPENDENCIES +============== + +Required: + * KDElibs 3.3 + http://www.kde.org + + * OpenSSL 0.9.7 + http://www.openssl.org + +Please note: If you obtain these dependencies via a packaging system, you must +also install the devel versions of these packages! + + +-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- + IMPORTANT INSTALL INSTRUCTIONS +================================ + +In order to compile and install KFTPGrabber on your system, type the following +in the base directory of the KFTPGrabber distribution: + + + % ./configure --prefix=`kde-config --prefix` + % make + % make install + + +Note: --enable-final is not supported. + +Packages for popular distributions are available at http://www.kftp.org/ + + +-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- + CONTRIBUTING +============== + +If you wish to contribute to KFTPGrabber, you should build it from SVN and +contact the developers via e-mail or irc - the IRC channel is also a place +where it's nice to be, since you can talk to other developers much easier. + +-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +WWW : http://www.kftp.org/ +MAIL: kostko@unimatrix-one.org +IRC : irc.freenode.net, #kftpgrabber + +-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- + |
