Introduction

Chapter 1. Introduction

When I started to work under Linux, I couldn't find any good graphical FTP clients. I found gftp, but it could only work against one host at a time. So I decided to do my own and named it KBear. First I did a pure Qt client, but soon I decided to rewrite it for KDE2 and this is the result.

Many people used to FTP programs may dislike this one because it doesn't follow the "standard" look of a such a program. Instead I've tried to make an "easy to use" program and as logical as possible. At least I hope I succeeded, your decision.

Feel free to come with suggestions to make it better at <bjorn@kbear.org>
