Two suggestions for WinSCP
Hello,
First thing, thank you VERY MUCH for the quality SFTP client! :) I'm a former FileZilla user, who gave up on the program when I found it was storing my passwords in plain text for anyone to see. I'm not confident enough that I will never ever accidentally allow access to my disks, so, well, I quit FileZilla, and finding that WinSCP does everything as well, or better, is a serious relief :)
I'm using WinSCP 5.1.6 build 3394.
There are only two features that I miss, would there be a chance to have them added to WinSCP in the future?
Kind regards,
Oliver

- A list of the already successfully (or not) uploaded files.
That, I believe, would be a MAJOR improvement.
For the moment, when I don't remember if I have uploaded a file or not, my only option is to try uploading it again and wait to see if I am prompted an "overwrite?" confirmation. Worse, when I'm updating a remote site (with Notepad++ as editor) and I can't remember if I saved the updated file in N++, there is no way anymore to know what file is being ran on the remote server.
A list of what files were uploaded, with success or not, and at what time, would come really handy.
-
Ctrl+W
to close session tabs. This has become the standard keyboard shortcut in nearly all programs using tabs, and I find its absence in WinSCP disturbing. Yeah, it's just a little detail ;)
Kind regards,
Oliver
