is a web-based remote file manager. It supports basic file manager operations as well as uploading and downloading files. It can be used as a general purpose file manager and also as a tool for maintaining web sites. Most operations with should be straight forward.

It can be changed manually in the appropriate field following the 'Paste as' button.
Another way to paste the clipboard content is to use the 'Paste' button below the file selection window. This would always paste the current content of the clipboard in the current working directory (of the form where the 'Paste' button is clicked). Note that the 'Paste' button would paste the clipboard content even if the clipboard form is not appended. The clipboard content may be altered from another browser window, or, in principle, by another user from another computer (this is one of the reasons that different users should use different configuration setups of ). The 'Paste' button always responds to the current content regardless of its source. It is possible to have open in two browser windows with different working directories, and to cut (or copy) a file in one of these windows and then immediately paste it in the other.
