“… many new users, especially those from the Windows world
where GUI clients such as WS_FTP95 and CuteFTP reign king, would
expect a GUI equivalent of their favourite FTP client for Linux.
And, as usual, the Open Source community responds.”
“gFTP is a copyleft, GTK+ based FTP client that is being used
most with the GNOME desktop environment.”
“IglooFTP is another Open Source FTP client that shares many
interface traits with CuteFTP in the Windows environment.”
“Xftp is yet another Open Source FTP client for the X Window
System. WXftp’s interface is very similar to WS_FTP.”
