Suggestions/Requests

First, thank you for the most useful and stable under heavy usage FTP client I've yet to try for OS X (and I've tried most of the current ones)!  Two features that I would find most useful would be:

1) A preview or confirm window option for all sync operations like Dreamweaver ( Embarrassed) so that the user can visually verify the transfer options that are about to be attempted, sort of like a debug log in advance of any actual changes being made.  I have a co-worker that is waiting on this feature to purchase the software.

2) FTP disk functionality like Interarchy (or the much better WebDrive on Windows).  WebDrive would be the better model for features (I used to use it a lot before seeing the OS X "light"), and with all the other functionality you have built in it seems like some kind of combination of auto-sync/FTP Watcher would do it.  I currently use TextMate to do Remote Editing and it works great for individual files, I really prefer the Project pane it offers but that is limited to the local file system.  I currently can sync to a local dir and work on it via TextMate, then sync back to the server, it would just save some steps if the sync-to-the-server process was automated (and configurable) on TextMate saves.

Thanks for your consideration, I really appreciate the obvious effort you have already put into the software.

Hi Chris,

Welcome to the forum Smiley

A Synchronize Preview facility is already being worked on right now, but since it's a substantial amount of work I can't yet give you an accurate time scale for it's inclusion in a release, unfortunately. But it's coming...

The FTP Disk feature from Interarchy or WebDrive feature would be a cool addition for Yummy FTP. I'll certainly add this to my feature request list. Since I don't own a PC, would you please email me to describe how WebDrive differs from the FTP Disk implementation in Interarchy? Then I can make some informed design decisions.

Thanks for the feedback, and thanks for the appreciation of all my hard work Smiley
