Creating Shortcuts to Folders

Sometimes, getting dropped off at your 'home', or default, folder isn't convenient. You have a folder nested within a bunch of other folders, and traveling through the folder hierarchy is no fun! Luckily, you can create a shortcut to whatever folder you'd like once you get there for the first time:

1. When you've navigated to the folder you'd like to make a shortcut for, click the Shortcuts menu option at the very top of the screen, and choose New Shortcut. (You can accomplish the same thing by pressing Command-T)
2. Name it whatever you'd like that'll help you remember what the shortcut goes to. The rest of the settings shouldn't need to be touched. Click OK.

Now, when you click Shortcuts in the very top menu bar, you'll see it listed in the resulting drop down, as well as if you click 'Show Shortcuts' in the resulting dialog box.

Fetch is a file transfer client for Apple Macintosh, that uses FTP (File Transfer Protocol) and SFTP (SSH File Transfer Protocol). The latest versions of this software - Fetch 5.3 and 5.7 runs on Mac OS X 10.3.9 or newer. The interface of Fetch is simple and easy to use.

• Droplet shortcuts for convenient drag-and-drop uploads to commonly used servers;
• A file list modeled on the familiar Mac OS X Finder;
• Editing of remote files using any application, with changes automatically saved back to the server;
• Synchronizing folders using the Mirror command, which only uploads or downloads the files that have changed since the last transfer;
• Upload and copy files between servers using Copy and Paste.

2. You can change to a different folder in several ways: Double-clicking the name of a folder in the file list (or selecting it and pressing Command-O or Command-Down arrow) will go to that folder.
3. The Path button in the transfer window toolbar displays a pop-up menu that lets you go to any folder that contains the current folder.
4. The Back button in the transfer window toolbar takes you back to the folder you were previously viewing.
