FTP Get/Put All option
It would be nice to have an FTP Get/Put all function that would allow getting or putting an entire site. This would be especially helpful when putting a site into Mides that I'm working on already on my computer.
I’m thankful

Inappropriate?I have been thinking about how to implement this in a sensible way, from the UI perspective, but it is definitely something that is on the radar.
Thanks for the suggestion!
I’m happy

Inappropriate?You could have a button kind of like the "Update All" button in the App store. For instance, if you were in the root on your FTP server, a "Get All" button would appear in the top right corner. If you were in a specific folder, maybe you could have a "Get Contents of Folder" button.
In fact, to download folders, you could do what the Mail app does for moving and deleting emails: have an "Edit" button (or in this case a "Pick" button), and then you could select the specific files and folders you want. The same thing would also happen for the FTP Put section. You could also do the same thing for moving, copying, and deleting inside of Mides.
One thing about Mides that prevents me from using it as portable alternative, however, is the fact that Mides can't download files that are inside of folders and automatically make the folders that file is in inside of Mides. Instead, Mides puts the name of the folder inside the name of the file (e.g. "cssbase.css" instead of "base.css" inside the folder "css"). It's the same thing for FTP put. If I had this ability, I would use Mides much more than I do now.
Thanks for this wonderful app!
I’m confident

Inappropriate?all good suggestions, I will consider them. The folder issue is a bug that I seem to notice across architectures, for example when using a mac based FTP server, it seems to work, but with gnu or Windows it joins the folder name and the file name.
I am working on fixing this bug now.
Thanks! -
Inappropriate?Okay, I'm looking forward to it!
Now that you said that, I tried the FTP Get from Mides to my Mac, and it created the folder for me.
Thanks for your quick response!
I’m excited
