Providing url is of course the main action user could do... There several ways to do that :
This dialog box pop-up when you select "Add an url" from main menu or toolbar. It also pop-up for every url to add if you checked the switch "open dlg" in option. There a different dlg for every url, so if you pass 100 urls, this will display 100 dlg !!! - You have been warned.
- "Auto Down... " : Switched according to option. See also "Auto Download concept".
- "Auto Rename ... " : Switched according to option. See also "Auto Renaming concept".
This is the common way to add url : Drag url from your browser, drop off the url on the list... Url is added according to your options.
You can Drag more than one url at each time : select your url list, each ended by '\n' ( the enter key ), and drop on the list. A more safe solution, with multiple url, is the use of "copy an url" solution.Nota : If you switched the "open dlg" option, this will do nothing with multiple url. This is a know bug.
When copying from clipboard ( paste item on main menu and context menu ), this will add an url for every line of the copied text.
The copy item will export a text, with url of all selected url on a separed line ( each end with '\n' char ).Nota : If you switched the "open dlg" option, this will do nothing with multiple url. This is a know bug.
You can retreive url definition from a saved file by clicking the button on toolbar, or select item in the main menu. Read further to know how url are retrieved from file...
- "Auto Down ... " : If set, all retreived url could be auto downloaded.
- "Auto rename ..." : If set, gsfdm won't ask and create a new name if it found a same file when start the download. See Auto renaming section .- "Open as ... " : By default, when loading from file gsfdm look a plug-in that know own to parse a file and add url(s) the plug found. For exemple, the html plug will retreive url from all <A HREF="..."> tokens, according of its options.
If this flag is set, gsfdm will no parse data, and read each line of the file as a possible url.
CORBA is for Common Object Request Boker Architecture. It's allowing application - not only gnome - to easy exchange data or perform action througth a bus of communication. Gsfdm act as an Corba server, receiving request form clients. The more useful request is the add of url. For full information, go to the section CORBA integration. For an exemple, go to section Galeon integration .A more detailed answer to corba is available at http://www.omg.org/gettingstarted
Well, library incompatiblity on my system for now - and i'm really sick of there craps - so no screenshot. Follow galeon instructions / helps - there're good - . Here the function you need :
CORBA_boolean GSFDM_Url_add_url(GSFDM_Url _obj, const CORBA_char * url, CORBA_Environment * ev);
Netscape don't provide a Corba interface, but you can use a new gsfdm as Corba client, it will add the url. Set :when setting mime in preferences...
- gsfdm -p "%u"
This is not really a way to add urls at the list, just an alternate solution to CORBA. When adding an url - as option - in the command line, Gsfdm will add it to the url list, using the default user setting . If there already a Gsfdm running, this will act as corba client, sending data through the corba bus and exit.
