[ANNOUNCE] QDL - A download manager - maemo.org

marxian | # 1 | 2012-11-08, 17:23 | Report

QDL is GUI download manager that provides management of file downloads. In addition to direct links to files, QDL also supports other sites and filehosts.

Current features:

Concurrent file downloads (maximum is user-definable).
User-definable categories for completed downloads.
Add multiple URLs simultaneously.
Import URLs from text file.
Option to monitor clipboard for URLs.
Pause/resume downloads.
Restore incomplete downloads upon startup of the application.

As mentioned above, you can also provide a direct link to a file, as you would with wget. Basic auth should work, though I haven't tested it. I may add other features such as header-only downloads in future.

Some screenshots:

Maemo5

Harmattan

UPDATE 24/03/13:

Version 0.8.1 for Maemo5 now available from extras-devel. Changelog:

Plugins are now distributed as separate packages.
Bug fixes.

For Maemo5, the list of available plugins can be obtained by entering:

Code:

apt-get update
apt-cache search qdl-plugins

Version 0.8.1 for Harmattan: http://ubuntuone.com/1bNJeUYqgtatkwohKgeZUx

It seems there's a problem with garage atm, so I've uploaded the debian package to my Ubuntu One account. The link is in the first post.

Marxian may have plans for a Harmattan version, he does have an N9 after all.
