A pre-release of linscp, a Qt 6 port of WinSCP for Linux and Windows. It runs WinSCP 6.7.1's own core under a new Qt interface. It is not affiliated with or endorsed by the WinSCP project.

Upgrade from 0.2.0: Help > Check for Updates crashes 0.2.0 on Linux, and the 0.2.0 Windows packages could not make HTTPS requests at all. Both are fixed here.

What's new

  • The rest of WinSCP's Commander menus (P3-15):
    • Panels: View > Thumbnails, with local and remote previews; the panels' Type column, the Sort menu and the column layout commands; Change Drive, Change Directory and the panels' path menus; Restore Selection.
    • Command line: the command line and Insert to Command Line, with WinSCP's command histories.
    • Queue: the queue commands in Commands > Queue and in the queue list; Queue > File List; Options > Queue > Once Empty (sleep or shut down).
    • Files and tabs: Files > Upload/Download, New > Link and Locking; Tabs > Color.
    • Help, toolbars and options: Help's pages, Check for Updates, the Update button and Help > Donate; the Hot Keys toolbar; the Options toggles for tabs, the panel status bar and the queue toolbar.
  • Portable mode:
    • Windows: a new zip package. Unzip it anywhere and the configuration is kept in linscp.ini beside the program; linscp-cli shares it.
    • Linux: put a WinSCP.ini next to the AppImage and the AppImage uses it.
  • Fixes:
    • The Site Manager now saves a new site into the folder you pick, as WinSCP does.
    • The built-in transfer presets showed a stray & ("&Text", "&Binary"); fixed.
    • S3: Properties now work on servers without object ACLs, and on folders that exist only as a prefix.
    • The Windows packages now include the JPEG, GIF and SVG image plugins.
  • Testing: every protocol is now tested against real servers: OpenSSH, vsftpd (FTP, explicit and implicit FTPS), Apache WebDAV and an S3 server. The full suite runs on Linux, under Wine and natively on Windows.

Not yet: some Preferences pages (Environment, Interface, Updates, Drag & Drop, and the panels' Remote and Local pages) and custom command extensions. See the tracker.
