ForkLift 1.7.3 - Powerful file manager: FTP, WebDAV, S3, Bluetooth, more. (Shareware)

ForkLift is a new file transfer solution that not a lot of people have heard of yet. MacUpdate has decided to partner with the great folks at BinaryNights to expose to the world what we're calling "the next Transmit." We think that ForkLift's developers are adding features at a faster pace than the most popular FTP client on the Mac. We think Forklift has a strong chance of pulling out from the shadows and becoming the next major file transfer app on the Mac.

Forklift is a powerful file manager and ferociously fast FTP client clothed in a clean and versatile UI that offers the combination of absolute simplicity and raw power expected from a well-executed Mac software.

ForkLift will connect to any remote server FTP, SFTP, Amazon S3, WebDAV, the SMB, NIS and AFP shares on your local network, or your Bluetooth mobile phone- pretty much anything you can plug into or hook up to a Mac. ForkLift also carries a complete toolbox for managing your files, including Folder Synchronization, Batch Renaming, Archive handling, Application deleter, editing files over remote connections and many more. All these power features are packaged into a Finder-like, dual-pane interface that delivers superior workflow while remaining absolutely familiar to use, along with QuickLook, Spotlight search and all.

Key features:

• Dual-pane view
• Connect to FTP/SFTP, FTP/TLS, Bluetooth
• Folder Synchronization
• Tabs
• Archives: Rar, Zip, Tar, Gz
• Amazon S3 support
• WebDAV support
• Remote edit and preview
• Spotlight and Filters
• Growl support
• Favorites and Favorite Groups
• QuickLook local and remote files
• Droplets

One of MacUpdate's favorite features is called "FXP." It allows you to copy files from one remote FTP server to another, without first downloading it to your Mac and then uploading it to the destination server. As you can imagine, this direct connect ability can save a ton of time moving files between servers and making fast backups.
