Update: FileZilla 3.2.5 – Remote File Search

Saturday, June 20th, 2009

FileZilla 3.2.5 - Remote File Search

FileZilla 3.2.5 - Remote File Search

FileZilla 3.2.5 brings forth an interesting feature: Remote file search.

To perform a file search, hit F3, choose a FTP directory to search in (or leave this setting at default in which case all dirs will be searched) and add one or more match conditions. Files can be matched by name, path or size. For maximum flexibility, regular expressions can be used. Additionally, the conditions can be combined in one of three ways (AND, OR, NONE).

Just rememeber that this works by navigating the whole directory structure of the FTP server (or specified subdirectory) so, if there are a lot of files/directories on your FTP, it can take a long time to complete a search query.
