Re: [orca-list] (IMPORTANT) Accessible ftp client



Hello,


It really depends on what you are trying to do.


When coming from Windows to Linux this was one of my most difficult questions.

At first I wanted to have all in one usable graphical FTP client similar to Filezilla however filezilla is unlike to get better accessibility support since it inherits most of its accessibility issues from wxGtk that is not expected to get addressed in the mean time I started looking for other choices.


For simple browsing one time uploads and downloads I do use nautilus also known as Files app when you are using GNOME or Unity desktop environments. Nautilus uses GVFS to access remote sites including FTP so you can just put an FTP url into its address bar or you can go to its top pannel menu and hit Connect to server from there.


It support plain FTP, SFTP, FTP with SSL (I think FTPS) and also FTP with TLS(I assume FTPES).


Then I some times use Firefox addon called Fire FTP, that looks similar to Filezilla however that's not a standalone app but a Firefox addon.


And finally for syncing large directory trees over FTP I either use ncftp or LFTP from the command line.


There are much more FTP clients than these but this is a combination that works for me.


Greetings


Peter

Hello,
With Ubuntu Mate 16.04 and Orca 3.18.2, I'll use a FTP-client. I tried to use Filezilla, but the foldertree is inaccessible!
Which FTP-client is accessible and fully usable with orca?
Thanks!
