Don't forget about the tab key to autocomplete a filename. For example, if I need to cd into a directory called My Special Stuff, from the terminal I can type cd and then type My and then hit tab to have it match the rest, turning it into My\ Special\ Stuff/ and then I hit enter. If there is is more than one match it will ding and you can hit tab again to get a list. For example, when I fire up terminal I usually get dropped into ~/cblouch and I want to CD into Documents. To do that I type cd D tab and it dings to mean there are either no matches or multiple ones. So I hit tab again and it responds with Desktop/ Documents/ Downloads/ which all start with D. So I type oc to the existing D to make it Doc and then hit tab again to complete it to be Documents/ and hit enter. The tab completion feature of the default bash shell is really handy.

The problem I have with that is if a filename is long, its a pain to try to 
spell it.

You can also use FTP command-line in terminal. I haven’t done it in awhile, so 
I’d have to brush up, but it’s easy to google it.

Transmit is very good, it costs quite a bit but not found anything else 
anything like as accessible and easy to use.

If you can spare the money, transmit is good from what I've heard.
