What is FTupperWare?

FTupperWare is a small and simple FTP application used to monitor a "hot folder" and send any items added to it to an FTP server of your choice.

How to use it:

Upon first launch, FTupperWare will ask you to enter in its general setting. Simply type in the server address, your login name ("anonymous" for guest access), password, and any remote directory you wish to upload files to. Then you must choose a "hot folder" to monitor for new files. This can be either a local folder from your hard drive or a server volume. You can also specify as to the time FTupperWare checks the hot folder for new files, and if you wish to lock these settings from being changed with a master password.

Once you have all the settings in place, simply click the OK button. FTupperWare will then periodically check the hot folder for any new files, and if it finds any, upload them to the FTP server. Once it is done uploading the file(s), it will then move the uploaded file(s) in the hot folder to a new folder it creates called "~Uploaded". If a file with the same name exists in the ~Uploaded folder, it will be moved to the ~Errors folder. If a file already exists there too, it will be overwritten. Please remember to check these folders periodically, as they could fill up fast with files.

FTupperWare cannot upload files that are in use by another application. These files will be skipped until they are no longer in use, then uploaded. Also, FTupperWare cannot upload folders to an FTP server, only files. Folders and their contents will be skipped by FTupperWare. I suggest compressing all files and folder to a binhex file before dropping into the hot folder. If you want to know how many files in the hot folder have yet to be uploaded, look for the number below the status light.
