Classic FTP mentions Editing file - but does it have a Catalina Version? Does anybody know if the lastest paid-for version of ClassicFTP works on Catalina? I know FTP is old technology, but I have an old archived website of nothing but personal interest and KOMPOZER no longer works on Catalina to edit dead link. I notice that last year's paid for version of ClassicFTP mentions editing: "From NCH Software:Classic FTP Plus for Mac is an easy to use ftp client to view, manage, edit, upload, download and delete files from a remote server or network. " But I can't see any information or contact to ask if they have updated it to work on Catalina. I had the previous free non-editin version of FTP but it stopped working with Catalina of course..

how does MacOS determine the default ftp application? Monterey 12.6.6. When I pull down Go>Connect to Server, in order to ftp or sftp to a server, I'm dropped into Fetch, which seems to be my default ftp application for my Mac. How do I change that default ftp application using the OS? Strangely, in Fetch preferences, you can designate a default application, which might not be Fetch. Duh? I'm supposed to use one ftp client to defer to another??

'Get macOS Mojave' link not working. I need to rollback to Mojave from Catalina. Why is so hard for Apple to give full old OS download link for clean install on mac OS hardware? Ridiculous limitation. Apple is mouthful about security, yet Apple cloud is only partially encrypted (btw), and only way to get Mojave is by dosdude package installer (unknown source). Is this what Apple calls security? It look to me like myway or highway agenda. I wonder if anybody will notice this post. This is the reason why good things gets bad.
