FTP is an insecure protocol that sends your both password and your files
across the Internet unencrypted. I'd advise against using FTP and moving
towards something like SCP or SFTP.
Most hosts that support those protocols also support Rsync, which is a
fantastic tool for synchronising large collections of files. Not only does
it only copy across files that have been changed, for large files it
actually inspects *inside* the file and only sends across the *parts* of
the files that are different.
It's a command-line tool, but there are various GUI wrappers available for
it.

I'd advise an online tool for this -- there are plenty of them, and
they'll save your bandwidth.

Many text editors offer this. My current favourites are Nedit, SciTE and
TextWrangler.
