Version: 0.6.0 (using KDE KDE 3.3.2) Installed from: Compiled From Sources the feature for happy idling: periodically send NOOP commands to the server so it doesn't disconnect you when it reaches 120 seconds(usually). the time between NOOPs could have a configurable default setting, and could also be configurable for every server if you don't want the same for all.
Agreed - this is a necessity! Can't believe it wasn't already built in as nearly every GUI FTP client has it.
