A fman FTP Client that uses the powerful ftputil library.

• Open ftp location (open_ftp_location): Connect to a FTP server using the given URL.
• Add ftp bookmark (add_ftp_bookmark): Bookmark current -or custom- URL.
• Open ftp bookmark (open_ftp_bookmark): Open a bookmarked URL.
• Remove ftp bookmark (remove_ftp_bookmark): Remove a bookmarked URL.
• Open ftp history (open_ftp_history): Open a previous URL.
• Remove ftp history (remove_ftp_history): Remove the whole connection history.

The URL must follow the format below:

ftp[s]://[user[:password]@]ftp.host[:port][/path/to/dir]

• Support for URL-encoded chars in user/password (e.g. @ -> %40).
• Show extra file/directory attributes: Permissions, Owner and Group.
• Connection pool under the hood for a better overall performance.
• Bookmarks.
• History.
• File view/edit.

• Allow setting file/folder permissions, if applicable.
• Limit number of simultaneous connections to avoid ftplib.error_temp: 421 Too many connections from the same IP address..

• Currently there is no way to close an active connection.
• When editing files, there is no way to know if a file has been edited. Must be uploaded manually through the popup.
• Create file command shows an editing files is not supported alert after file creation, although file edition is enabled.
• When in the root directory, the Go Up command raises an error.
• Move to trash has been disabled on purpose, there is no Trash support.
• Although there is -theoretically- FTP_TLS support, it has not been tested.
• Passwords are stored in plain text when creating Bookmarks.
• Passwords are shown in plain text in the URL (this can be mitigated using Bookmarks).
• Currently ftputil is loaded from a frozen copy included in the plugin source pointing to the 3.4 version. I have not found a better way to include it.
