Instillation instructions for Filezilla

1.Download the virtual machine image from this website: [[http://www.thoughtpolice.co.uk/vmware/#ubuntu]]
The recommended version of Ubuntu is 10.04. you can download it from here directly: [[http://sourceforge.net/projects/thoughtpolicevm/files/Ubuntu/ubuntu-server-10.04/ubuntu-server-10.04-i386.zip/download]]

2.Once it's finished downloading, make sure you have Vmware Workstation installed on your computer. If you don't have it, you can download it through Dreamspark

3.Unzip the vmware Image, and open the (.vmx) file, that will give you a clean image of Ubuntu 10.04
The user name for the operating system is: notroot
the password is: thoughtpolice

4. Once you've logged in, go on sudo mode by typing:
sudo su

5.enter the password for the user(thoughtpolice) and you're ready to go. if you want, you can change the password by typing : "passwd", but it's not necessary.

6.start with the stages to compile Filezilla. go to the FileZilla website for instructions: [[https://wiki.filezilla-project.org/Cross_Compiling_FileZilla_3_for_Windows_under_Ubuntu_or_Debian_GNU/Linux]]

7.follow the stages, download all the packages. that might take a while...

Features/Bugs/Other:

http://trac.filezilla-project.org/ticket/9207 multiple commands submitted at once: maybe just creating a buffer that then releases the commands one at a time as each previous command finishes?
http://trac.filezilla-project.org/ticket/9201 save the time of creation of a file and submit it to the server
http://trac.filezilla-project.org/ticket/9139 adjusting the time to re-attempt between failed connections: should be easy enough once we find it
http://trac.filezilla-project.org/ticket/8092 not beign able to upload a file to a non-existant directory is not a failing of filezilla, it's a failing of the user
http://trac.filezilla-project.org/ticket/9203

a recent fix request for some key bindings and keyboard shortcuts. That's easy enough that I think we should just toss it on as a sixth project (3 months ago)
http://trac.filezilla-project.org/ticket/9203

Another one that dovetails well with the previous request I mentioned is a request for navigation buttons http://trac.filezilla-project.org/ticket/9041
