Does anyone know of an FTP client that can edit multiple files at once? Right now I have to edit one file, save it, switch back to the client and open another, edit and save it, then switch back to the other. I'd be a lot better to just have the client open several into my text editor and be able edit and save (upload) them all concurrently.

(P.S. I'm looking for just a standard FTP client, not an IDE.)

I can do this with CuteFTP. If I have a bunch to do though, I'll open up UltraEdit and use it's "Open From FTP" under the file menu, then when you hit save, it saved it back to the ftp server.

The only option in Windows that I know about is PSPad. It's not necessarily an IDE because it's just a text editor with an FTP option.

I just use HTML-KIT's ftp on non-essential edits (use Winscp for SFTP usually). Open all the files I need and edit insitu. Just save afterwards and the changes upload automatically. Great for CSS edits of multiple stylesheets.
