Local Files

Firstly, once more to remind departmental MSc students to make sure that they have logged into their i: drive.

Within the FTP window, the general area on the left side is concerned with the files on your local machine (ie the one you are sitting at).


Your Current Path

This is displayed in the top left corner under the words Local Files in.

Changing Your Drive

This can be achieved by clicking on the drop-down arrow adjacent to the box labelled Drives, then clicking on the drive of your choice within the drop-down list.

Controlling the Listing

The local files that are listed are constrained by the what is declared in the box labelled File Name on the left side of the FTP window. A list of all files in the current directory is produced if the contents of the File Name box is the *.* wildcard.

Clicking on the List button adjacent to the File Name box will produce a listing subject to any new constraints.


The File List

Your local current directory's list of files is located in the box on the bottom left corner of the FTP window. Subdirectories are denoted by the use of square brackets, therefore [name] is the name of a subdirectory. You can move into a subdirectory by double clicking on its name. Double clicking on the [..] directory moves you into the parent directory.
