Download Manager for Linux?

logosys · 09-27-2005, 01:27 AM

Howdy,

Can anyone recommend a download manager for linux (a program that allows pausing, resuming and scheduling of downloads)? Unfortunately, GetRight doesn't come in Linux flavors... Thanks so much for your help.

I am sure you could have googled for this and also find
a good list of zindoze linux equivalent, one of this long list
is on LQ. Anyhow, if you find it post it here, too late, here it is:

In the meantime

d4x, getleft

I have not tried any of these. Let me know which one you found best

I believe Linix has already download managers in it.
Gnome - gwget
KDE - Kget

I've used D4X (Downloader 4 X), which is GTK2 based.

You can get it from: http://www.krasu.ru/soft/chuchelo/download.php3

It's fairly stable; crashes sometimes.

If you run KDE, start by trying KGet - you'll probably find it has all the features you need. Certainly it has pipelining and pause/resume (if the server supports resuming - most do), plus a drop-target a la FlashGet/GetRight.

This is just a GUI for the GNU downloader WGet, so I expect the GNOME equivalent has all these functions too.
