- Shuttle FTP Suite
- -----------------
-
- Shuttle FTP Suite, is an Internet multiprotocol client, so it can perform the functions
- of every client supported by the program. Due to the fact that it has been developed to
- work in a Windows environment, it has a visual, easy and intuitive interface.
-
- Those characteristics are obtained building a program that supports multiple
- windows or MDI documents (multiple document interface). Allowing the use of different
- windows simultaneously, the work that have to be done gets easier . Working with a
- program that does not support MDI, means that multiple sessions of the same program must
- be opened for every client, but using a MDI program, there is no need to open more than
- one session of the program, because as many clients as wanted can be opened from it, and
- they will be displayed in their respective child windows. Using Shuttle FTP Suite, you can
- open several sessions of each implemented protocol (FTP, Telnet, Ping, Finger, ...),
- and open sessions of different clients from the main program.
-
- Shuttle FTP Suite supports 6 Internet protocols : FTP, Telnet, Finger, Whois, DNS and Ping. Now
- I'll give a brief description of each one:
-
- The main supported client is FTP (File Transfer Protocol), which is
- used to transfer files over the network using a visual interface similar to Windows
- Explorer, and supports Drag & Drop, Copy & Paste, and broken uploads/downloads resume.
-
- MFTP lets you upload files to multiple hosts simultaneously.
-
- Telnet client is a console emulator, which supports not only Telnet
- servers but also VT100 emulation.
-
- Finger is a simple protocol to get information about a user.
-
- Whois lets you get information about network domains.
-
- DNS lets you know the IP address of a host.
-
- Ping is a utility to see if a server is up and running, and to
- show statistics of the communication. The information and the statistics are displayed
- visually.
-
- FTP Client
- ----------
-
- The FTP Client included in Shuttle FTP Suite, is the most important of the whole
- Shuttle FTP Suite application (note that it gives the name to program). It is visual and
- has a clear interface, so the user has no need to know any FTP command.
-
- The main screen is divided in three parts: The first one includes the menu and
- the toolbar, the second one includes the tree viewer which displays the directories like
- Windows Explorer, and the third one includes the file viewer which displays the files
- listed in the current directory (like Windows Explorer).
-
- The tree viewer lets you navigate through the directories of your local files and
- your FTP servers (displayed as remote units), and the files of the current directory will
- be displayed in the list viewer. You can make a connection to a FTP server using either
- the Quick Connection option or the FTP Site Manager. Shuttle FTP Suite lets you connect to as
- many FTP servers as you want, because each session will be displayed as a remote unit in
- the tree viewer.
-
- The FTP Client supports Drag & Drop and Copy & Paste, of files and directories,
- and includes advanced features like recursive File Search (even if it is a remote FTP
- server), Server to client and server to server file copy, tree deletion (even if it is
- not empty), and broken upload/download resume (I have called this automatic system:
- Smart Resume)... and many other functions.
-
- You can use the next file functions with the FTP client: Delete, Rename, New
- Folder (directory), Upload, Download, Copy, Paste, Execute, List (dir), Search, ...
-
- It is very easy to use, because it works exactly like Windows Explorer (its
- interface is similar too).
-
- Telnet Client
- -------------
-
- The Telnet Client lets you open a remote session to a host. It opens a console
- window that lets you connect to the Telnet server.
-
- The Telnet client is divided in two parts: the first one includes the menu and
- the toolbar, and the second one includes the console window. You can open a session to
- a remote host using either the Quick Connection or the Telnet Site Manager option.
-
- This Telnet Client, supports VT100 terminal emulation (including font attributes
- like bold, inverse video, etc).
-
- Finger Client
- -------------
-
- The Finger Client is a simple client that displays the response of a Finger
- server, which is usually information about a user of its system. You can connect to a
- Finger server using either the Quick Connection or the Finger Site Manager option.
-
- Ping Application
- ----------------
-
- Ping is an application used by many system administrators and users to see if
- a server is up and running, and to check the connection characteristics.
-
-
- The screen is divided in three parts: the first one includes the menu and the
- toolbar, the second one the main screen with the list of the sent packets, and the third
- one includes the statistics of the current ping. You can ping a server either using the
- Quick Connection option or the Ping Site Manager. After that, you will see a list of the
- sent packets and statistics of the current ping, and you can copy, save or print them
-
