FTP client for mac osx

[bousozoku]

So nobody else uses the terminal as an ftp client? I don't even remember how I found it, I just remember that I was pissed off at comcast's web-based upload for their personal sites. The first gui client that I tried didn't work, so I used the terminal. It isn't even that hard to use.

I've mostly used the text-based client on other systems so using the one available through the Terminal application isn't a huge deal, but when I need to create a whole folder structure for a new area on my website, nothing is easier than a GUI-based client.

I've been using CuteFTP, due to its popularity on Windows but it has a strange bug and doesn't always switch from text to binary automatically. Cyberduck looks good to me since it will handle Japanese, as well as, secure connections.

What advanced features do you need?

SFTP, SSH, TLS/SSL, queueing, multiple site connections/threads, those are off the top of my head...

For some things I do, for other things I think Cyberduck is better.

But if I use the tar command to make a large gzipped archive and want to upload that to a ftp-server I usually do both in Terminal, not bothering with Cyberduck. (<- This is a fairly common scenario, e.g. when I upload new genealogy pages for to my girlfriend's site.)

When I'm tuning a lot of web pages (php/inc/xhtml/css/etc) and need to upload one or a few files at the time with regular intervals I find dragging them right from TextWranglers drawer over to the Cyberduck window is easier...
