Glynx - a download manager. INSTALLATION Windows: - unzip to a directory, such as c:\glynx or c:\temp - this is a command prompt script, it will not work properly if you double click it. However, you can put it in the startup directory in "slave mode" making a link with the --slave parameter. Then open another command prompt window to operate it as a client. - the latest ActivePerl has all the modules needed, except for "https://". Unix/Linux: tar -xzf Glynx-[version].tar.gz - under RedHat 6.2 I had to upgrade or install these modules: HTML::Tagset MIME:Base64 URI HTML::Parser Digest::MD5 libnet libwww-perl - to use https you will need: openssl (www.openssl.org) Net::SSLeay IO::Socket::SSL Please note that the software will create MANY files in its work directory, so it is advisable to have a dedicated sub-directory for it. How do I run Glynx? Before you run Glynx, you should be connected to the Internet. If your Internet connection is via a firewall or proxy, you should set the environment variable 'HTTP_proxy' to the name of this proxy server. If your proxy server requires a username and password, the environment variables 'HTTP_proxy_user' and 'HTTP_proxy_pass' should be set to these values. Glynx can then be run by typing 'perl glynx.pl [options] http://...' in a command prompt or terminal window. How to create a default configuration: Start the program with your command-line options, plus --cfg-save or: Start the program with --cfg-save, then edit glynx.ini file.
