klibido | usenet binary grabber for KDE | Mehr ... |
KLibido is a KDE program to download encoded articles from the usenet news service, using the nntp protocol. It supports multiple servers, multiple download threads per server, automatic joining and decoding of articles. . KLibido is not a newsreader. It doesn't let you easily display the articles, only their subject, and it discards all non-binary posts. If you want a nice newsreader for KDE, try KNode. . Features include: - Getting the group list and subscribe to newsgroups - Getting headers, sorting, filtering by subject, state and "completeness" - downloading and decoding of binary posts (including yEnc). - Queue management: it's possible to drag and drop items around in the download queue to change the order of download, pause the queue, pause and cancel the items in the queue. - Server priorities and balancing - Requeueing: if an article fails on a server, it is automatically tried on the other servers. - Viewing nfo's, covers, et al inside the program using kparts. - Group categories and aliases - .nzb support - KLibido uses KDE and the KDE libraries for the interface, Berkeley DB for storing the newsgroups' headers, and UUDeview for decoding the posts. . |
