Any good ftp client for a 9'' netbook? [closed]

I currently run FileZilla client but it's too large to fit the screen correctly.

"You can hide a lot of FileZilla's interface parts in the View menu, even the directory trees. Go into Settings > Interface and move the message log next to the transfer queue, if you haven't hidden them both or you want to see them. Select a theme with 16x16 icons.

You can end up with a UI with very little wasted screen space."

"Command Line would be the Smallest Method.

However if you have Firefox, and have it tweaked to run on a small screen i Highly Recommend. FireFtp Addon for Firefox.

If you happen to use Mozilla Firefox, the FireFTP addon is really nice. Very compact, definitely made for smaller screens.
