Short: V2.3b, leeches web sites, etc. Author: Tim Corringham Uploader: Tim Corringham Type: comm/tcp Replaces: tcpdl.lha Distribution: Aminet tcpdl is a program which downloads files from a http host. It can follow links (across sites if required), and can be configured to to ignore certain file types. It makes full use of AmigaDOS multi-tasking, and can download up to 15 files at a time. A status window reports current activity. tcpdl 2.3b fixes several bugs: - tcpdl sent http commands that some hosts didn't like - it should now manage to talk to hosts using any version of HTTP. - The UPDATE flag wasn't correctly propogated to all the URLs referenced by the files marked with UPDATE in the urllist. - The IMG flag didn't quite do what was advertised, so it has been amended slightly: tcpdlpp is a post processor for html files downloaded by tcpdl, which converts all links to those files downloaded to relative URLs. Links to files that have not been downloaded are made to explicitly refer to the site where they can be found. tcpdlpp provides a summary of the number of occurances of every link found, for both downloaded files and remote URLs. Using these programs together allows you to make a local copy of selected sites, which can then be browsed off-line. Links to files that have not been downloaded can be followed when you are on-line.
