Short: Integrate HTTP resume support into AWeb-II 3.2
Author: Duane McDonnell <tachyon@tolstoi.saccii.net.au>
Uploader: Duane McDonnell <tachyon@tolstoi.saccii.net.au>
Version: 1.00
Type: comm/www
Requires: AWeb-II 3.2, HTTPResume or similar
========================================================================
AWebResume is a system snooper which integrates HTTP resume support into
AWeb. It does this by interfacing AWeb and an HTTP resumption program
so that interrupted downloads can be both detected and resumed in a
seamless fashion.
This version of AWebResume is designed for use with AWeb-II 3.2 (demo
and registered).
AWebResume features:
- Automatic detection of interrupted downloads.
- Overrides AWeb's "incomplete file" requesters to give you the option
to retry, resume, delete or retain a partially downloaded file.
- Filters interrupted downloads to prevent requesters appearing for
specific file extensions, etc.
- Retrieval of stubborn files via your e-mail account.
- Prevents AWeb from deleting partially downloaded files without
asking.
- Opening of download files in shared mode so that other programs can
read files as AWeb downloads them (useful for checking an archive's
contents before a download has completed or for previewing files).
- Automated download resumptions for ARexx initiated transfers (for
unattended operations).
- Locale support where possible (uses AWeb's catalog if the same or
similar strings are available for an output message, this includes
the majority of AWebResume's non-error output messages).
- Fast, transparent snooping. You won't notice any degradation in
AWeb's performance or network transfer rates with AWebResume
installed.
- Does not patch or otherwise modify your original AWeb files.
- Fully configurable. Features can be individually enabled or disabled
according to your requirements.
To use the software you will need an HTTP retrieval program with resume
support. AWebResume comes configured to use HTTPResume by Andriya
Antonijevic. HTTPResume is not included as part of the AWebResume
distribution archive (you can obtain it from Aminet directory comm/www).
