I am one of those people who doesn't generally upgrade to the latest version of software just because a new version is out. I take security seriously so I do patch my OS and perform updates when they include a security fix but other than that, if something is working great I leave well enough alone. Today I decided to upgrade to the latest stable version of the Filezilla FTP Client. I have been using this for a long time now and I love the program, it just works and that makes me happy. While exploring the spiffy new interface I noticed a new icon on the toolbar called "Synchronised Browsing" and let me tell you this feature alone will cause me to never use another FTP program!
Synchronised Browsing mode automatically switches the remote directory to the currently selected local directory (and vice versa). This will save me so much time when I'm doing quick updates that aren't deployed via more automated build mechanisms. I am not sure if this feature is available on other FTP programs but I can tell you this will (and already has) saved me a lot of clicks and frustration.
Excellent job Filezilla team!
