My preffered FTP client is Leech because it doesn't seem to choke... but
yes DW is very very good, if a little funny at times.... (only started
using it very recently for FTP, it used to be rubbish - but at work we
have been using it!)

I use Web Site Publisher (www.cryer.co.uk/downloads/websitepublisher/), its
free, does the job but only runs under Windows.

I use AceFTP, free version.
It compares local and remote, with option to compare for just existent
vs non-existent, or difference in date or filesize. I never check for
filesize though, as for some reason files on the server are a few
bytes off compared to local files, and checking for date differences
only has effect if the time on the server is the same as on your local
pc.

The largest directory I've worked with so far has about 1300 image
files, but it never choked.

The only disadvantage I've found in AceFTP, is that it can't handle
usernames with an @ in it. (maybe the Pro version can though, I don't
know that)

Probably because you are using Windows and the server is using a
Unix-like OS (or vice versa). The line endings in plain text files are
different between the two so when you upload from Windows to Unix the
file size reduces by 1 byte for every line break (or increases by 1 for
the reverse).

As in my pc runs WinXP and the server is a Linux box? Yep :-)
(never knew that would effect the filesize...)

That's why ftp has both a binary and a text mode. Text mode allows
character conversion and binary doesn't. If my memory of what I have
read isn't faulty, ages ago (in Internet terms), conversion between
ASCII and EBCDIC was a common event. These days, most character
conversion is only for end-of-line markers:

Unix: 1 byte, LF (0Ah)
Mac: 1 byte, CR (0Dh)
DOS/Windows: 2 bytes, CR,LF (0Dh,0Ah)

I have exchanged messages with a Mac user in the past[1] and found my
ISO-8859-1 accented characters (and other high characters) converted
to the Mac character set in his quoted replies (I would type "caf"
and the quoted reply would have "caf" or I would type "15" for
for "fifteen degrees" and my quoted text in his replies would
have "15", for two examples).

[1] about five to seven years ago.

Just checked which mode is being used, and it appears I get to choose
between ASCII, binary, EBCDIC, local and auto, and it's set to auto.
On transfer of a text file, it chooses ASCII.
I never had any characters changed in the transfer though (except for
those line-breaks apparently).

Your post also changed one of my characters from CP1252 to
ISO-8859-15. You quote "caf" ("caf" + hex B4) where I had posted
"caf" ("caf" + hex 8E). It's Z with caron in both respective
character sets but, since Pine doesn't attempt to convert character
sets, the quoted character shows up for me as an accute accent.

That must be on your end afaics, because in my post, quoting your
text, I read "caf". It's in your reply only that I see the change in
the bit I quoted.

DW as in Dreamweaver? It's got the shittiest most unreliable, built
in FTP client in the industry. The thing drives me friggin nuts.

If his needs are choking WS-FTP Pro, DW's ftp client doesn't stand a
chance.

Yeah, you may notice that the differences occur only in text files
(.html) and not binary files (.jpg). The reason is that the windows
world ends line with a carriage return and line feed whiel the unix
file format doesn't feel the need to terminate lines with that extra
^M.
