Remote unzipping

Hello!

I am looking for an FTP program on Mac Os which allows uploading a file on an FTP server and unzipping it remotely.

This is because I have to upload quite frequently 4000-5000 small files at a time: even if the total size is just about 4 MB and my connection is quite fast, the uploading takes an incredible amount of time with every FTP client I tried.

I found a Windows-only solution which is called ZipDeploy
It works great but I have to boot Windows each time just for an upload...
There are some shell commands which I could use but I don't like the idea of using a console after every upload.

Is such a function supported by Cyberduck?

Thank you!
Nick

There is no such feature in Cyberduck.

OK thanks!

I found a temporary solution: I installed a PHP based FTP client, http://dolphin-php.org/ , which allows remote unzipping.

It would be a cool feature in CyberDuck though...

Bye!
Nick
