I can do the same with Dolphin but I find it clumsy. FileZIlla is made
to let you transfer files between local and remote directories.
That's exactly what I do with caja, either from one tab to the other or
between separate windows. I'm not sure what's supposed to be clumsy
about it.
probably the part about the remote machine not being accessible
to casual logging in or browsing. at least for my own purposes
there's no other method to get to that machine unless i want to
use a horrible web interface.
Ok. My setup, using bookmarks and login data in the keyring, allows me
to browse any of my remotes after two mouse clicks: one to open the
bookmark list and one to select the site.
when i transfer files back and forth for the website i'm not
always using direct copies and only in one direction being
important.
if i make a change on the website end and don't want my next
batch of transferred files to clobber it FileZilla has the
options for not having that happen. in a batch of 1500 files
with many subdirectories that isn't possible with a simple copy
from one tab to another.
Right. That makes sense. I hardly ever want what's on a site and the
local copy to differ, so for me copying between tabs/windows is fine.
