that's the task of a download manager Well, couldn't it be a standard-feature? - It's widely usable. Maybe even a maximum-speed selector? - Also as a stansard! Is this really about kget or the general kio dialogs? I dont know whether it's the kget or kio dialog... Is kget the stock-download manager of KDE? yes, kget is the download manager in the kdenetwork package that integrates with konqueror too. in the KDE4 version (currently developing in make_it_cool branch) this will take a primary role in managing every type of download/transfer. To be honest, I thought that I was seeing kget, when I was really seeing kio dialogs. The bugreport was about the kio-dialogs. A button named "Advanced" could reveal any or all of the following options. Considering how often kio-dialogs are displayed to users, scalability could be nice. The checkbox "Keep this window open..." could be a part of "Advanced", but what about "Limit speed to: XX kB/s" and "Retry (listbox: max 10(?)) times"? Also the "Open folder"-button could be moved into "Advanced". What do you think about my wishes? Who should I reassign this to? - and how do I do that? Thanks, The scheduler already retrys downloading, you can also do that manually by stopping a transfer and then pressing Start/Resume. |
