Hi

I am realy dying to find a nice program like winscp2 for Linux.

I personally ONLY use linux at home and mostly at work. But I can't
find anything that compares to it on Linux. Don't get me wrong.
Everyone at work thinks I'm a really console junkie and mostly I am.
But a GUI SCP program that works like a basic FTP program is really
great. (And I'm sick of my dumb boss showing off using a program I
showed him in the first place and teasing me for not having it on my
laptop)

I know I have the option to use a ssh wrapper on my proftp server on
that box but that still sucks conscidering all the effort involved.

Anyway this is turning into quite a long question just for one
question.. hehe

Thanks
David
(PS: Please don't tell to write one hehe)

Give me a couple of days, and I'll write something *simple* in Tcl/Tk...

It's not exactly like WinSCP2, but I've used gFTP with recent
Openssh servers. I can't remember if it uses scp or the sftp
subsystem off the top of my head, but here is the URL:
