Wiccle FileMan is a simple and small one-file file manager script for uploading, renaming and deleting files and folders on Linux and Windows systems. Click here to read the full release blog.
I have extended an old file manager script I wrote back in the days (2003 if memory serves) to help out everyone who may be having FTP file access issues caused by files written by Apache/PHP. It is a solid and simple little stand-alone tool you can upload anywhere and manage your files and folders without any configuration required.
In the future, it will also be integrated into our main systems as iWiccle/Wiccle File Manager under the Admin control panel. The current version works independently of other Wiccle software, it's completely stand-alone and very slim (12 KB unzipped). It represents my idea (of yore) of the way general purpose basic utilities should be — quick to deploy anywhere without uploading tons of files or going over all sorts of settings.
Whenever I get a moment to tinker on it a bit further, I will bundle in click-to-browse changeable directories to let your FileMan travel all across your server wherever you need it to go without having to change the base directory variable manually, along with CHMOD and CHOWN listing and changing for all files and folders, as well as online creation and editing of text files.
If there are other features you think would be useful in this tool, please let me know.
Incidentally I have a similar general purpose one-file standalone utility for MySQL editing called MySQLMan from 2004, coded as a free demo for a prospective customer who wanted to know if I could produce something that uses MySQL. I need to dig it up from them dusty archives (here's to hoping I can locate it!) and re-release it in new and better form (as well as integrate it as a general DB Admin into our control panels). Some of the data abstraction concepts employed in iWiccle/Wiccle date back to my old MySQLMan. Ah, memories...
