Using FireFTP on a Mac

[Doju]

How do I edit files on this? Clicking Add Programs will list it in the edit panel, but clicking the program won't do ANYTHING ...

I have to resort to Windows.

The Flaw is with the FireFTP Addon, reading through the help guide I came across this:

For Mac users: When you create a program entry for Safari, for example, you would think the path to the Application is probably: /Applications/Safari.app
and logically so, because when you browse the directory you aren't allowed to go into the Application's hidden contents. However, this is not the correct path. Right-click on an Application and do "Show Package Contents". The correct path to the Safari application is actually:

/Applications/Safari.app/Contents/MacOS/Safari

Not very intuitive, I realize, for you Mac users out there. Maybe in a future version there will be an easier way to access these hidden Application contents.

This seems to fix the problem that you are having, if your in need of a different program personally I recommend something like CyberDuck.

2nd Cyber Duck, but FireFTP works great in Firefox, just so ya'll know.

So, wait, how do I "Show Package Contents"??

Go to the Application in question, if you have a 2 button mouse you can right click and the "Show Package Contents" will be one of the top options.

If you can't right click you want to select the application and press the action button which will give you the same selection of options.

This is the action button btw, should be on your Finder toolbar by default:
