FileZilla 3 now on Linux

For the past few versions, great file transfer tool, FileZilla, has been available only on the Windows platform. Whilst there is definitely no shortage of GUI-based file transfer tools on Linux, filezilla is one of the coolest, at least I think it is. :)

Now switchers from Windows to Linux no longer have to look for an alternative app because FileZilla version 3 is now on Linux… and FreeBSD and Mac OS X! Here're some of the features of FileZilla as listed on their website:

  • Easy to use
  • Multilingual (English, German, French, Japanese, just to name a few)
  • Strong encryption support using SFTP over SSH and FTP over SSL/TLS
  • Supports transfer resuming and files larger than 4 GiB
  • Site Manager
  • Queue support
  • Proxy support
  • Speed limits
  • MODE Z transfer compressing
