macOS ssh client that’s capable of downloading and uploading files?

[WST16]

Hi,

Anyone knows of such a good (preferably, non-subscription) app that can download/upload to/from macOS desktop and folders? I’ve tried Core Shell but it failed miserably.

Thanks

Have you tried using Terminal and opening a SFTP session alongside your SSH session? You can drag and drop files from Finder into Terminal and (unless executable) they drop the path to the file.

TBH I use Transmit for this but it's pricey. Also have FileBrowser Pro.

Putty for windows stops the glass falling out !

Sorry, I'll get my coat.

I don't believe it can connect with SSH, but maybe consider ForkLift 3. There is a video on the web site that shows what it can do, and it has a free trial when you download it. Plus it is a 1-time purchase instead of a subscription. Worth checking out to see if it meets your needs.

ForkLift 3 - most advanced file manager and FTP client for macOS

Interesting. Never tried that. Will do. Thanks.

I have Forkleft 3. No ssh.

Used it ages ago on Windows. Not my favorite (although very popular). Never tried it on the Mac. Will check. Thanks.

Wow! No kidding. It’s $45 now. That’s a lot for something I’ll be using occasionally. I remember it was around $15.

In Terminal you can use File -> New Remote Connection to create SSH and SFTP sessions, if you don’t want to type out the commands.

For graphical and free … Cyberduck

Thanks. I used the Duck a long time ago. Not a fan (it had a Windows feel to it if I recall correctly), but I can try it again.
