Hi,
I would love to see a an option to set a number of active transfers, or actions that can run at one time.
So I could start different copy, move operations to different folders (local drives or ftp) and depending on the number I have chosen, any further file operations will be added to the activity viewer in a waiting state until its turn in the queue arrives.
Keep up the great work!!

In addition to the function sgtbob mentioned above, I would also like the feature of pause and stop transfer (while they are still in the queue but are able to resume later), arranging the jobs in queue list, and auto save/resume queue list when the program is closed and restart.
In windows, there is a program call Flashfxp, which can do this perfectly. This is my only missing application after switching to Mac 2 years ago.
Thanks all.

I definitely want a FTP app that handle queues well, pausing and resuming is the missing function in every Mac FTP app. But on Windows, apps like FlashFXP, CuteFTP Pro, FTPRush can do this very nicely. I simply don't know why. Mac users don't meet such problems as starting incomplete job over and over? Or they just trade off with the "Simplicity"?
Queueing in Transmit is crap, quitting the app loses the queue, and the pausing function seldom works, what's more, the queue is not per connection but all in one. If I download from two sites, the queue will prevent the second job from automatic starting. When there are more items in the queue, it's a total mess.
I feel forklift is very promoting since I first touched. And I really really need some really 'Handy" FTP app.
