Searching for ports in the forum turned up this thread.

With the following comment from bigstar
FlashFXP is written in Borland Delphi 4. It can not be ported.

IF there's going to be linux port, chances are there's going to be OSX port too.

I thought Bigstar said No to a Linux port, too.

The quote I pasted looks like it says no to any porting.

Unless someone wants to write an FXP client for Linux/MacOS using the likeness and exact functionality of FlashFXP, then donate the source to Bigstar to call it his own. I'm sure we could arrange a discount to register your copy of it. :p

If you want something comparable to FlashFXP, use pftp.

Well, someone could spend the time re-writing FlashFXP in VC++ or VC#. With VC++ you can probably port it to whatever platform you want. With VC#, i THINK MACOS has a .NET FrameWork plugin that will allow for C# programs to run. NOt 100% sure.
But porting Delphi to C is not the easiest thing in the world. Nor is C for that matter. ;)
I love flashfxp, best program under $50 i've ever used.

What about Kylix? Ain't that Delphi for Linux?
Sorry for bringing this up again. I'm yet another user that want this excelent client for multiple systems.
