Description Alberto Torres Ruiz 2008-09-29 00:17:31 UTC
Version:           2.1.1 (using 4.1.1 (KDE 4.1.1), Kubuntu packages)
Compiler:          cc
OS:                Linux (x86_64) release 2.6.27-3-generic

No matter if Kget has been open for hours or days, or how many files have been downloaded: if it crashes or it's killed, it displays the same downloads as when it were opened.

It's very annoying when it crashes while it has a lot of downloads almost finishing, because URLs are lost.

The download list should be saved when an URL is added or removed, not just when the program exits gracefully.

I think this has been changed by Javier already, though I'm not sure if it is in trunk only. Javier, can you please comment on it?

KGet saves the downloads list every time a transfer is added or removed since this revision http://websvn.kde.org/?view=rev&revision=839338

Actually this change is only in trunk, not in the 4.1.1 version (http://websvn.kde.org/tags/KDE/4.1.1/kdenetwork/kget/)
