This software quickly renames files and folders in preparation for FTP uploads by replacing invalid characters with underscores.
One of the standout features of FilenameToFTP is its ability to replace German special characters such as ä, ö, ü, and ß with their corresponding substitutes of "ae", "oe", "ue", and "ss". Additionally, the program will automatically convert all filenames to lowercase, making it easier to differentiate between earlier uploads.
If you're working with a UNIX-based internet server, FilenameToFTP is particularly useful as it can prevent issues from arising due to differences between uppercase and lowercase characters in a filename. For example, if you upload a file named "FilenameToFTP.Zip" but then link to "filenametoftp.zip", the file may not be found by a browser online, resulting in frustrating errors. However, with FilenameToFTP, all filenames will be converted to lowercase and special characters will be replaced, ensuring that your files will be easy to find on the server.
Safe characters such as a-z, 0-9, and the underscore are automatically applied, allowing for effortless, error-free file uploading every time. Simply run FilenameToFTP to rename your files and you'll be able to safely and easily upload them to your desired FTP-server.
In addition, FilenameToFTP will automatically set the file-date to the current date, making it easy to track when files were last edited and uploaded. With its powerful features and ease of use, FilenameToFTP is an essential tool for anyone who regularly uploads files to an FTP-server.
