What's new? Technically, most everything, since this was a rewrite from the ground up. This version more closely resembles 1.9.x rather than 2.4.2. The big changes are: =================== * Support for firewalls. * The way cool bgget and bgput commands. * No curses for the main window. The bookmark editor is still a full-screen application. * Increased portability and stability. * "Ls" caching. The "redir" command is no more, since it's done now automatically. It can re-format the listings, and store more than one directory listing, so this is a big plus. * Put -R, and Put -z to resume an upload. * NcFTP is no longer in the business of colon-mode or any of that junk. Instead, NcFTP is doing what it was originally designed to be, which is an *interactive* browser interface to FTP. But, I've spun off "ncftpget" and "ncftpput" as separate utility programs for those of you who want to do command-line FTP. * Automatic recognition and use of "on-the-fly" TAR on servers that support it. This allows for more precise preservation of directory structures for directory downloads. It also uses only one connection for the whole directory, instead of one connection per file in the directory. * The archive site has moved to ftp.ncftp.com.
