Auto-uncheck FEAT option.

Obeliks · 07-02-2004, 07:03 AM

Well, this isn't really important, but it's something to think about. I don't know if it's been suggested, but I didn't find anything in the suggestion forum matching FEAT, so I figured not.

The point is: Why not make the "Site supports FEAT command" checkbox a three-state checkbox and have a "auto" mode. In the auto mode, FlashFXP tries the FEAT command the first time it connects to a site, and if it gets "Unknown command", it switches it off. This way, the user can re-enable it in case the site gets another/a newer ftpd...

Comments welcome.
So long,
Obeliks

This could be a nice option, however think how usefull it actually would be. I cannot believe how annoyed people are with a little line in the status window with "FEAT: command not understood". Do you really think Bigstar should give his precious time on this feature, instead of other, far more usefull options?
Just my 2 cents.

It only is annoying when you have a slow connection/bad routing to the server, and it takes 20 seconds to send the command and get the return

also, I didn't say it was a top-importance issue

So long, Obeliks

Ahh i didn't realize it could take time. All the servers i use have a response time of a few milliseconds....

yeah well, there are others... unfortunately :/ A lot of private servers running on crappy cheap 10mbit lines have bad response time...
