The purpose of this application was to enable the user to download files which are attached to web pages, but WITHOUT having to click on each link/file individually to save them. Instead a list of available files is created, and all/selected files can be downloaded.
IT IS NOT a program to store web sites on your local drive, use something like Web Whacker for that. This is just an easy way to download multiple files from a HTML page on a web server.
Platform Requirements
---------------------
The application requires a PC running Windows NT4 or Windows 95/98. Currently the application is only available for the Intel platform.
You will either need an internet dial-up account running TCP/IP or be connected through your LAN, again using TCP/IP.
Connecting to a site
=-=-=-=-==-=-=-=-=--
To connect to a site you can either enter the URL in the "Location" text box and click on the "Connect" button. Alternativley if you are using either IE3/4 or Netscape Navigator you can double click on the "Current netscape/ie URL" option under "Web leech Sites", this will open that URL in webleech.
If the site contains frames then you will notice a little "+" box appear next to the site name in the "Web Leech Sites" section. Clicking on this will expand the frame-list and you can select a particular frame, again by just double-clicking on it.
Downloading files
=-=-=-=-==-=-=-=-
Downloading files (or copying, if from local drive) is done entirley by drag and drop. Once a file-list has been generated for a remote site, you can simply drag and drop the file(s) that you need to a local path on the left-hand pane.
