All,

Please find the attached Windows Rt native binaries for FileZilla. FileZilla is a great FTP client:

https://filezilla-project.org/

This port was a labor of love that I started long ago and only manged to get it finished now. I've had to cut out TLS and SFTP support because of the lack of GNU-TLS. All that aside, this should be useful/handy for people looking to transfer files on their local networks or unsecured over the internet.

I hope someone finds this useful!

Cheers!

Very nice! Too bad it doesn't use OpenSSL instead; a decent SFTP client would be really nice. Well done on the port; I looked at FZ myself months ago and concluded it would be a considerable project.

Doesn't the PuTTY port have SFTP support via psftp? And I think FileZilla uses psftp fork for the SFTP functionality.

Thanks It works very nice!

first of all, very thanks, and it works very nice for me.

i'm very suprised about FILEZILLA working on Surface RT.
i can feel your labor of love because filezilla source code is complex.

i wish microsoft open the surface rt without jailbroken.

best regards.

Thanks man! Some of these ports take _hours_ of effort because of how many supporting libraries I generally have to also port. FileZilla was one of the complex ones and near the end I just gave up on GNU-TLS and releasd it as is. As I get more things ported and learn more hacks/tricks I'll go back and revisit some of my ports such as FileZilla.

Cheers!

Jokes aside, I love your work!!! Please keep it on. I know how hard and frustating such work can be, but I think a lot of people (at least me and my friends) are sooo happy, that you make our device more usefull

First of all, many many thanks for the porting.

I extracted it like the other programs I have, but it gives me an error and doesn't initialize:

I searched but I still couldn't solve it. Did anyone have this problem too?
