Using the clipboard to transfer
You can use the Windows' Clipboard function to copy and paste a URL directly into CuteFTP Pro with the Connect to URL feature. This allows you to connect to a site, or if specified, download a file.
From any Windows application, highlight the URL. The URL may be general (ftp://www.globalscape.com) or specific (ftp://www.globalscape.com/pub/cuteftp/cute2632.exe).
Copy the URL to the clipboard.
Return to CuteFTP Pro, go to the menu bar and click File > Connection > Connect to URL.
Paste the URL into the Connect to URL window.
Click OK.
CuteFTP Pro will parse the URL and connect to the site or start downloading the file (if specified)..
The following formats are supported:
ftp://user:pass@host.host.com:port
ftp://user:pass@host.host.com
ftp://user@host.host.com
ftp://host.host.com:port
ftp://host.host.com

Note
The Paste URL feature is also supported by the Transfer Engine, and
is called Download URL.
This command is accessible by right-clicking on the Transfer Engine icon
in the Windows systray. Whether the URL specifies a path
to a folder or file, the TE will try to download it.
Depending on the URL you paste, CuteFTP Pro will either try to connect or download. Below is a sample of path endings and what CuteFTP Pro will try.
