wmdropzone - v0.4 Configuration
============================================
The configuration is expected in ~/.wmdropzone/config
But ~/.wmdropzone.conf is also checked.
see 'wmdropzone.conf.sample' for an example configuration.
1 Global Options
---------------------
DefaultBandwidth
this option takes one integer as an argument, which specifies
the default bandwidth limitation in bytes per second
DefaultPrefix
this option takes a path as its argument, specifying the default
directory (prefix) where downloaded files are stored in.
Logfile
this option takes a path to a filename, specifying the name of the
file wmdropzone will log your downloads to. if the filename is
relative, $HOME will be prepended as the prefix.
ShortCut
the key combination you want the dockapp part to grab which
will then be used to show the address list window at any time
without having to use the mouse (yeah! :)
To capture a key combination, you can use the 'wmcapture' program
that comes with wmdropzone.
WgetPath
specifies the full path of the wget-binary to be used for downloading
NOTE: on the wmdropzone Homepage you'll find a patch to wget 1.5.3
that will allow you to shape (limit) the traffic for seperate
downloads
2 FileType Container Options
---------------------------------
this creates a new filetype with the name 'type-name'
Extensions
this option takes a list of file extensions. each time any URL gets
queued, these extensions are compared to the end of the URL to
determine the type of download of that URL.
Prefix
this specifies the default directory prefix for this FileType.
Type
this option takes one argument being
'Simple', 'Download'
this is the default. just download and save it; that's it
'Mirror'
enable mirrored download of this Resource; i.e. the file
is downloaded, interpreted as HTML, and all links found
are downloaded then.
'Spider'
not implemented; i forgot what i wanted to have this for.
feel free to submit a feature request for this :)
Group
specify the group this download belongs to
'Single'
this downloaded is treated by itself, and if more than
one single download is active, the downloading is done
in parallel; naturally decreasing the amount of bandwidth
each download gets.
'Queue' - default
this download is treated as an element of the queue.
once the queue-download started, each queued item will be
loaded in order, one by one
Bandwidth
specify the default bandwidth for downloads of this FileType
this closes a filetype definition
Example:
Extensions tar.gz tgz
Prefix /tmp/download/tar
This will store all downloaded files with a tar.gz or tgz extension to
my download directory /tmp/download/tar.
