Gigolo

Gigolo is an amazing software that provides a graphical user interface to manage connections to remote filesystems via GIO/GVfs easily. With this software, you can quickly link up with and mount a remote filesystem, as well as manage bookmarks of them. It is part of the Xfce Goodies project and hosted on the Subversion repository of the Xfce server, but it does not depend heavily on Xfce, making it compatible with other desktop environments as well.

The software is dependent on GTK2, requiring version 2.12 or a newer one. GVfs is a userspace virtual filesystem and the successor of the esteemed GnomeVfs but does not rely on the Gnome operating system. Only a recent GLib version and a properly setup DBus system are necessary, and then it offers nearly transparent access to remote resources like FTP or SFTP (SSH) connections, SMB (Windows shares), or unique resources such as Trash (trash://), Burn (burn://), or even accessing your digital photo camera (gphoto2://).

Gigolo provides a frontend to manage connections to those resources, make bookmarks, and automatically link up to bookmarks. Its user-friendly interface and easy-to-use features make it a top choice for anyone looking to manage remote filesystem connections. Try Gigolo today, and you will not be disappointed!
