KMAGO - MAnager of Get Operations -
KMago is a KDE based download manager.
Currently, download operations can be based on
GNU wget (Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@srce.hr>),
<ftp://gnjilux.cc.fer.hr/pub/unix/util/wget/wget.tar.gz>,
or the KDE I/O library.
It is based on KDE2, Qt 2.2, either GPL'ed libraries.
Features:
* drag and drop operations with applications (konqueror, netscape, ...) and
between kmago widgets
* drop target and system tray icon with d'n'd capabilities
* transfers grouping
* multiple downloads control with priority and selectable priority policy
* resume capability check
* full configurable
* enabled to manage many retriever commands
* stable and reliable downloading process based on GNU wget
* cookie and http related management offered by KDE I/O library
What do you need to run KMago:
* KDE desktop environment at least version 2.0.1.
* QT library at least version 2.2.0.
* wget command line files retriever, any recent version, version tested 1.5.3.
Released with GPL licence.
Developed mostly with KDevelop, xemacs.
Your advices, bug reports, criticisms are welcome at
<sermore@users.sourceforge.net>.
Sergio Moretti <sermore@libero.it>
NOTES
=========
* wget has a global configuration file, in debian /etc/wgetrc, and a per-user
file, ~/.wgetrc. Don't set "http_proxy" or "ftp_proxy" or you will not have
the possibilty to change this value, because Wget override values set in
environment with the ones in configuration file.
* for KDE version < 2.0pre, add to configure:
--enable-kurlerr-req
--enable-kaction-err
* When kmago crash, wget processes remain active in background, so you have to
kill them manually. Please submit a bug report (from version 0.5.1 bug report
pops up automatically on parse errors).
* if you want to use a document used in previous version with kmago-0.6,
you have to manually edit it and replace `Id="0"' with `Id="2"' in the
second line of the file.
* from version > 1.0.2, kde retriever is enabled by default, you can disable it
with --disable-kio option in ./configure. If you plan to use it, consider
upgrade KDE to 2.1
* wget retriever can be disabled with configure option --disable-wget
* many options are being added from version 1.1, check them with kmago --help
WARNINGS FOR GCC 2.96
======================
for RH 7 users, and everyone who has gcc 2.96
The compilation goes well on gcc 2.95, but gcc 2.96
could find some bugs here and there. I don't have gcc 2.96
so I patch it when you send me a bug report.
THANKS
=========
* Mariusz Przygodzki for debian packaging.
* kde-devel mailing-list for valuable help
* Andrea Pesarini for rpm packaging.
* Michael Janssen for debian packaging.
