I’ve been using Filezilla alot lately but it has been messing up a few transfers (to live servers no doubt) so I decided to try a new FTP client. I hade used CuteFTP Pro before and like it alot. I have a huge list of sites in my Filezilla site manager though and I was not going to re-enter all of them. I had a look at what CuteFTP could import and decided I could convert Filezilla settings to text and then import them to cute ftp…. So I added
[code lang=”xml”]
[/code]
to the Filezilla.xml file which can be found @ “C:\Program Files\FileZilla” (usually) . I then wrote XSLT to transform the xml to text so I could import it.
[code lang=”xml”]
Site Label:
HostName:
Username:
Port:
Default local folder:
Uses passive mode
[/code]
I copied the ouput to a text file and imported it to cute ftp. No passwords mind you but it saved me a lot of time – hope it helps you 🙂
