@ Flow Development Team

Above mentioned feature would certainly be helpful. Thanks.

Throttling downloads, as well, would be good. Multiple connections to download a single file would be godly ;) Is it just me, or can I not resume downloads.

I tested, even reported stuff, etc. I have tried every other FTP client out there for Mac. I might buy Flow (I have Fetch and I am happy with it); but there's a thing that no FTP client does (afaik), not transmit, not fetch, not interarchy, not cyberduck, not ForkLift, not Finder, not not not not, etc. (well, Total Comander for Windows does it) What? Throttle. xDSL lines gets easily saturated with fast FTPs. The ability to say: "download this file at 5k/sec" is a "must" in order to be a good neighborhood. We are 4 here using the same line, if I want to download 1gb from an Ftp, I might not want to f**k my other friends during that time. The first FTP client that implements that as easy as xTorrent do for P2P, gets my love. :) It must not be hard given that Leopard ALREADY has support for that. If you can dynamically operate that (that is add rules on demand...) that could be an idea. Anyways, Brian, congratulations!

But the deal-breaker for me are the permissions. If I'm not able to set permissions for multiple files at once (batch action), then the application is useless for me. Setting upload permissions is one thing but once they're up, you may want to change them again... for dozens or hundreds of files. Right now, permissions can only be changed file by file. Also, being able to see permissions (in an additional column) for all the files seems to be missing as well. When do you think this will be implemented?

Love it Brian and Olivier! I discovered a little bug which occurs when I open Coverflow view in Finder: Scroll to the Flow icon in Coverflow and then enlarge the Coverflow section by pulling down the gripper beneath the horizontal scrollbar. When a bigger Flow icon is used (presumably 512x512) the icon is cut of at the bottom. You see it "jump" a little actually. It's probably something with the spacing. Thanks!

Naturally. In this context (that is, providing the builds for a specific purpose, instead of generally giving users the latest just because it’s better), though, it’s important to establish the non-appcast home of where this stuff lives, too. :-)
