Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard

[DrFrank]

My Leopard Family Pack will arrive the day after tomorrow. I'd love to know if YFTP, one of my favorite apps, will be useable or will I have to wait for an update.

I'm aware that developers haven't yet received the final verion of Leopard, but I'm hoping Jason might be willing to issue a qualified comment about Yummy FTPs compatibility with Leopard.

FYI, Cabel Sasser, of Panic Transmit/Coda fame, has just written:

Transmit
The currently shipping version of Transmit, 3.6.1 as of this writing, works mostly great in Leopard — with the exception of one or two surprise issues (one of which is related to editing text files internally) that we discovered late in the Leopard cycle...

Coda
... The currently shipping Coda, 1.0.5, will work great in Leopard.

Ok, here is my official statement

The current release (v1.6.1) works pretty much as expected under the last beta version of Leopard. I did find quite a few bugs introduced by the new OS, but these have all been reported to Apple and I trust that they will be fixed, if they are not fixed already

Having said that, I will be providing an update to Yummy FTP very soon after the official release of Leopard is available - right after I've had the time to install it, test it out for myself and iron out any last minute gotchas the good guys in Cupertino have sent my way

That's great. I want to say that I just tried out Flow, and Yummy FTP blows it out of the water. In all honesty, it is the best FTP client I've used on any platform, at any price. I am an engineering student and use FTP all the time. Yummy is worth it's weight in gold to me. I can't wait to see the new version that works perfectly on Leopard. Are we going to see any new features... not that I need any more?
Also I want to say that many shareware developers are giving their software away at low or no cost to get the word out about their software. I have to really really like a piece of software to recommend it at all if it costs. I never would've seen or tried out Yummy FTP without MAAD. The MAAD discount was what got me to try it out and buy it. I am now a Yummy FAN! Thanks JD!
