erm

Thankyou for the offer.That sort of testing would be very useful, but I asked him to put that link up there and tbh I don't think u have any right to demand anything. Quite a number of people have been using the program with varying degrees of success since I first posted about it.

Check this

Excellent, glad you like it! You need to select an item in the download list for start download to work. Also I have just fixed a bug which may have caused it to crash then, redownload the file from the link on the frontpage! Working version number should say version 5.

Problems

I think I managed to break the server side code so no one could actually login...It should be fixed now, so if you couldn't get it to work please try again! Also check out the link on the twofo front page for the new updated client

update

Download the updated client and server at http://bigjim.warwickcompsoc.co.uk/gui3.rar it features new, more descriptive error messages when you can't connect to the master server and you can add whole directory structures to the download list(although it doesn't auto download yet)

Boller

The reason boller was stuck on the server list is because his client crashed and currently the server doesn't refresh very well as the server side code's very primitive - I have just manually removed him.

Hi

Yeah, my lack of version numbers was kinda stupid so now I have added that and uploaded http://bigjim.warwickcompsoc.co.uk/gui2.rar complete with new features include multithreaded downloading(you can download in the background).

Big thanks to all the ppl that have helped me by using my program!

is anyone else starting to write such a client

Hi,

I've looked into it and it shouldn't be too hard (crosses fingers) to write such a client - Infact I have started! I'm just wondering if anyone else's done any work on this idea(PM me)

Cheers
