WinSCP equivalent for Linux/Ubuntu

Question

I'm shifting most of my projects to a Linux machine, and one of the things that I miss is WinSCP. I've found other answers saying that nautilus, FileZilla etc. can be used for SFTP, but something that I loved about WinSCP was that it has two panes (FileZilla's got that) and I could start synchronization from any directory. Unison or Rsync could work, but I'd have to create a folder pair every time I want to sync two folders. Is there an SFTP client for Linux that has a two-paned view and allows ad-hoc synchronization?

Solution 1

I use SSHFS for this, together with the Midnight Commander.

Solution 2

You can use KDE's Konqueror with the fish protocol (to go over ssh) or with sftp directly.

Just interact with it like it was a web browser

fish://username@server:/home/username and your good to go.

Thanks. I've been using SSHFS; in fact, currently, I'm using Unison with SSHFS (for some reason, setting remote directory wasn't working). I tried Midnight Commander, but also found Gnome Commander, and Gnome Commander seemed more similar to WinSCP. It (gnome-commander) does have a "synchronize" button, but it wasn't doing anything. will look around for solutions. Thanks once again.
