gRapid allows premium users of RapidShare to automate downloading of files without having to attend to them. It relies on Java and GNU Wget to process downloads from a file containing Rapidshare links, one on each line. It can perform simultaneous downloads of any number you may desire.
Few caveats with this release:
- You must have JRE 1.5+ installed (in short, the java command should work)
- gRapid should be able to find the Wget binary (this is included for Windows)
- A default 'Downloads' directory (already created) must exist, as this is hard coded (!)
- If you queue more than one download, Wget writes all it's verbose output to a single output file, which (due to lack of file locking) can be quite messy
- Doesn't warn you if links provided in the input file are not present, i.e. not found on Rapidshare or deleted, etc.
As with any open source software, you are free to modify/redistribute gRapid (as permitted by the license). Improvements, and/or bug reports are definitely welcome, on either the Issues feature of Google Code, or by contacting me.
