BeGet - A Frontend for wget

BeGet is a frontend to wget, and makes it easy for you as a user to download bigger files. BeGet (or rather wget) lets you resume a download if you for some reason loose your Internet connection. BeGet also supports multiple simultainous downloads. In the Preferences you can queue the files you want to download and set max simultainous transfers.

The only thing you have to do, is to click on the bookmark icon and add the url to the file you want to download. This can also be done by choosing File --> Add New Download. Confirm with pressing Add. The download will start automatically, and the progress can be seen in the bottom part of the window. Files are downloaded to /boot/home/Downloads.

By choosing one of your entered bookmarks (sources) and right-clicking it, a content menu will appear. The menu lets you Add New Download, Suspend or Resume, Stop or Start, and finally Delete a download.
