This is an ebuild I have been missing, so I decided to give it a little shot. pftpmew is a curses-based FTP client with FXP support. Features include SSL/TLS encryption, multiple simultaneous open sites, quick switching between open sites, filtering, and a whole lot more.
Created attachment 38663 [details] pftpmew-0.11.46.ebuild
may look at this later. I don't like the condition of users creating files to make this work.
added as requested.
One little proglem though.... The $DOCDESTTREE varible in the ebuild doesn't exist. * In order to use pftp-mew you need to create these files: * ~/.pftp/config * ~/.pftp/keymap * Refer to the examples in for more information. <--- ?
thanks - fixed now. Thought it was too easy ;-). enjoy
Thanks Daniel. I understand your concern with the manual configuration (although that's common in other packages), so I'm thinking of writing a simple bash wrapper script to install a default config on first use. It should be a pretty simple job.
if you can program in C you could patch the program to check a global configuration files /etc/pftpmew/{config,keymap} Althernately for the bash script I'll include your script functionality in a config routine in the ebuild.
