[REBOL] FTPGadget Version 1.1

A long time ago, a fellow reboler (Jason Cunliffe) wrote "[arggh!!!] The
main file display sucks :-(((. This is basically RT fault, and a generic
REBOL/View problem, because they have not yet delivered a viable file
requestor.
Well, there is an update. Go check out www.ProGadget.com, and download
FTPGadget 1.1. It now sucks less :)
We are working on FTPGadget more regularly now, the current big feature that
is about to go in is a graphical FileList, and a file transfer task manager.
This will allow some COOL features, and perhaps make it suck even less
still. But an example of a feature that will be possible is file type
recognition, highlighting files to operate on, and directory size, which is
a feature I REALLY want.
As to the Graphical FileList, we will give the source to this back to
Rebolers. We would like to make it a black box so we all can have a better
file requester.
As always, FTPGadget will be free to everyone on the Rebol list.
One cool feature we added allows you to go to an FTP site, and set your
source directory, and then just press a single button that memorizes (like a
bookmarks). From that point forth you can just jump to the site, and it
will put everything where you like it.
Please send you feedback about the product to [FTPGadget--ProGadget--com]
Thanks.
Be useful.
