Did You try FireFtp? It's a plug-in for Firefox (that means it's cross-platform). It works really well. ![]() FireFTP is an FTP client, not an SCP/SSH client. It can't do half of what WinSCP does. I've considered building a Mac client like WinSCP, but it's a fairly huge endevour. I've been doing some iPhone development, and could try taking on the project eventually, but probably not any time soon.But yeah, I feel your Mac pain. Aug 25, 2010. Years, there has recently been a rise in popularity for alternative operating systems (OS). While VMware provides the same service for both Mac and PC. See what the capabilities and advantages of both VMware Fusion. Using Mac Keyboards in a Virtual Machine Because PC and Mac keyboards differ, you must press certain key combinations to enable certain PC commands on a Mac keyboard. For keys with no keyboard equivalent, VMware Fusion provides the Send Key item in the Virtual Machine menu. ![]() Transmit is one of the better FTP clients on the Mac, yet it still does not support SCP/SSH. I don't care for Fugu. It's latest release is now 4 years old, and half the time it doesn't work right. But it's open source, so a Mac spawn of WinSCP could start there. Custom commands are the big point of WinSCP for me. Editing temp files that upload on each save action is another biggie. Fugu doesn't really support either (though its counterpart iHook is supposed to handle the commands behavior). Brother print driver for older mac mini. Both Fugu and iHook tend to be on the ugly side though. Jerome187 Guest. Set up a Windows virtual machine. I highly recommend VMWare Fusion. I'm currently running WinSCP and a plethora of other Windows applications on my Mac. This is a bit of a long winded approach, but you'll have virtually(pun) no software constraints. Honestly, This is the best option. Might take a little extra work for some people to set it up; but this offers the best of both worlds! This way you have access to over-write/ drag and drop/ SyncToy type of applications which surely add a lot of value to the Microsoft machines.:wink: Cheers, K.K Neill Guest WinSCP for mac. Tried a bunch of apps - half didn't work at all, others lacked in features. I think worst of all was Cyberduck - I have no idea why it is so popular it so painful to use, especially if all you want to do is make a quick edit to a typo in a file on the server. In WinSCP this was a 30second task in Cyberduck I could still be fighting with it 20mins later especially as it doesn't seem to over-write files properly. Closet I came to a stable option is Forklift 2. It's a great alternative to Finder and has fairly stable FTP support both in a dual panel set up or mounting the drive so you can treat it like a connected USB drive and edit files with your favorite apps. Still not as good as WinSCP but it kills two birds with one stone - an improvement over Finder and Cyberduck in one. Still searching for the perfect solution though - may have to use VMWare fusion and WinSCP. Guest Guest Re: Winscp for mac. Tried a bunch of apps - half didn't work at all, others lacked in features.

There's a simple hack if you grab the source code for filezilla and set the file change polling interval to something like 500ms it works like a charm for remote file editing over ssh. I'm really surprised that there is nothing that comes close to winscp for linux or mac. I've tried sshfs, fish [linux: konqueror + dolphin support fish:// addresses] and every editor under the sun it seems and nothing is as easy to use as winscp.
