Welcome on KawaGet's home page !

 

The ultimate front end to wget,

a freely available network utility

to retrieve files from the

World Wide Web !

100% pure Java !


Some screenshots are available, and if you want to check it out right now, go to the download area .

There's a help page in the archive (only for compiled versions), that explains how to set up the configuration file . READ IT !!! or you'll not be able to use the software ! (Actually yes, but wget won't work !!!)

 

Blah blah :

KawaGet is not a 'real' software, in this way that it does not handle the retrieving of the files from the Web itself. But it's a cool&easy tool for using a pretty complicated command line software. And since wget has numerous command line options, it's the perfect tool for lazy peepz, ... like me ;-)

There's no help file provided, but if you read the manpage or texinfo file that comes with wget, you'll know what the options are .

 

KawaGet now has a logging window, so you can see what wget wants to tell ya !

It's still a bit buggy at this point, but it works !

A future version, to be released soon, will include a tool to configure your .wgetrc file visually (check out the first picture here).
