Fetch Softworks: Download Fetch 4.0

Version 4.0 of award-winning Fetch brings many new features to the Mac's most popular FTP client. Improved continuously since it was introduced at Dartmouth College in 1989, the program is now offered by creator Jim Matthews' Fetch Softworks. Version 4.0 sports a completely updated interface, borrowed largely from the Macintosh Finder, that Mac users will find intuitive from the first use. The interface fully supports Mac OS conventions such as drag-and-drop, contextual menus, and balloon help. Dozens of other new features were also added to this version including support for eleven types of proxy servers and remote folder mirroring capabilities. Security conscious users will be pleased to know that the new version supports Kerberos, challenge/ response password authentication, and the Mac OS keychain; secure FTP support is planned for a future version. Fetch also integrates with BBEdit, Graphic Converter, and QuickTime allowing users to view and edit files on the FTP server. Fetch runs on any version of the Mac OS from System 7.0 to Mac OS X. A fifteen-day trial is available for free at the Fetch Softworks Website. A single user license costs $25; quantity discounts are available. Free licenses are available to users in education and charitable organizations (details on the Website).
