Compression

Just trying out CoreFTP Pro for use as a command line FTP client, I was rather surprised at the wealth of features. Looks like I may be able to combine work done by several packages I use for backups into a single product.

For the moment just looking at compression.

1. On one PC I get the "Compression" option listed on the menu but not on an other machine. Why?

2. Is there some way to specify AES encryption rather than what looks like a standard WinZip password?

3. Having entered a password once, the same password is used even when I do not select to use the same password.

4. Last night I noticed that not all the displayed dates follow the system date format. Some were in US mm/dd/yy rather than our dd/mm/yy. I can report back when I see them again.

5. In the bottom section of the screen where qued items are shown, the fact that encryption has been selected is not shown.

Thanks.

I have the answer to my first point.

On one machine I first installed the lite version and then the Pro on top. Seems like the lite version remained. Uninstalled and re-installed Pro and Compression is now there.

Answer to my point 4 now discovered in Global Settings > Display

What confused me was that many dates WERE in the expected format.

Thanks - I have sent a feedback request. What we need is that the contents of the zip file should be encrypted rather then the session traffic.
