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
