Client, or server? I can answer for clients. I'm a KDE user, and have found Konqueror has been plenty for my FTP download needs, and regular old "ftp" command-line/text-based app for uploading (e.g., to SourceForge.net). "ncftp" is a fairly nice text-based FTP client, with [Tab]-completion, bookmarks, and all that good stuff. Briefly searching what's available on Ubuntu, I found: atftp - advanced TFTP client cftp - A full-screen ftp client ftp - The FTP client ftp-ssl - The FTP client with SSL or TLS encryption ftp.app - File transfer protocol application for GNUStep ftpgrab - file mirroring utility gftp - X/GTK+ FTP client gftp-gtk - X/GTK+ FTP client gftp-text - colored FTP client using GLib kftpgrabber - ftp client for KDE lftp - Sophisticated command-line FTP/HTTP client ncftp - A user-friendly and well-featured FTP client ncftp2 - A user-friendly and well-featured FTP client tftp - Trivial file transfer protocol client tnftp - The enhanced ftp client I'm guessing for 100% desktop integration, Ubuntu (GNOME desktop) users would want "gftk-gtk", and Kubuntu (KDE desktop) users would want "kftpgrabber". Additionally, there's your favorite browser -- like I mentioned, I use Konqueror on KDE, and there's Iceweasel/Firefox. Finally, KDE also has a 'download manager' that you can use (separate from Konqueror, or whatever browser you choose) called "kget". (Think of it as a GUI alternative to "wget", I guess.) So... I can't say how 'super' most of these are, since I haven't used all of them, but Ubuntu apparently has a ton of choices. :) > 3-I have been looking over "Audacity" > for a while and am having trouble understanding > how to get just the "exe" files for the program. > Care to help? I'm not sure if you're looking for a newer/different version than what comes with Ubuntu, but it's available as a package. Just do: sudo apt-get install audacity or use your favorite package installer or application installer. Good luck! -- -bill!
