Does Filezilla have a menu-bar command for uploading?
As I understand it, Filezilla provides two ways to initiate the upload of selected files: double-clicking the files, and selecting the Upload command from the context (right-click) pop-up menu. Is there a command in the menu bar that does the same thing?
I use Filezilla on a laptop with a touchpad whose behavior is not always predicable. So it is possible that after carefully selecting multiple files for upload, an intended double-click or right-click can be interpreted as a single-click, which clears the selection and resets everything. I would feel more secure having a menu command or command button such that this could not happen.
I think this is a problem that many GUI programs have, an over-reliance on double-clicking and context-menus. Any actions on files should be accessible by a menu command.
