I think now its time to say why I bought textmate.
I give a f**** about tabs, its nice in a browser, but in no other tool I use tabs. I am honest, I love Yummy cause of not having tabs. I hopen 5 FTP connections and make drag and drops via expose finding the right window. not the only one transmit window and hoping that the right tab is focused or already open ;) Also I tested Yummy and Transmit on my powerbook uploading arount 1000 small php files to an sftp server. Transmit started using nearby the whole CPU usage and the fan started to sing ;) with yummy ftp my cpu usage always far, far under the usage of transmit. Next thing, when I worked for a company in Australia we had a lot of problems with the internet connection (cause of the ISP, routers, switches etc.) Nevertheless Transmit made really big problems with connections not stable. I am not talking about the queueing system and the whole mechanism which is different to yummy ftp. I am talking about a Transmit which closed itself without a reason, only thing was, internet connection which went offline and online in 10 minutes about 15 times.
These are some of my reasons why I use yummy.
Only think I don't like on yummy ftp is, that there is no WebDav support til now.

At the end of the day, Fred's right of course. To each his own. But for any web devs out there who find Transmit plus whatever FTP client you're using to be a little lacking, I would heartily recommend checking this one out in exactly the same spirit as I would heartily recommend TextMate to someone who isn't happy with BBEdit, Dreamweaver, etc.
You still fail to give any example where e.g. Transmit is "lacking" anything compared to YFTP. You can't write things like this without providing any evidence. I can't find anything in my quick tests or in the features list of YFTP that I'd miss in Transmit. And I don't buy their "super fast transfers" motto: In every test I tried (big files, folders with lot of files, etc.) Transmit was a bit faster.
Just saying it's "the TextMate of file transfer clients" on the TextMate list is a bit easy, don't you think?
P.S: I just noticed that *gasp* YFTP doesn't even have tabs! ;)
