well your probably not going add this but i will give it a shot anyway ;)

sometimes i spend alot of time queueing files that is not on the server yet ...

if im uploading file.r01 and i know that file.r02 will be on the server im downloading from, i will queue that too by queue and edit file.r00 that i have already downloadet once to file.r02

that takes alot of time .. but if it was possible to do something like click on file.r01 and pick a number ... 30 it would add the following files .. .r01 .r02 to .r30

this might seem unusefull to alot i would find it a really cool function ;)

if you have time to sit there and watch as downloads come in, you have too much time ;)

To my knowledge, I dont think the author is adding features to assist warez traders. So i'd say its a big longshot ...

yeah well thats what i expected .. but it can be used for other purpose .. say you want to dl something from a ftp but not all is there .. you can queue and go to sleep if the files is being upped right after eachother on the remote server.

Most normal ftp-servers don't make the downloads available as they're being uploaded. Most will in fact only make things available when it's all ready to be downloaded. It has to do with how the server is percieved as a professionally run server. Partial downloads tend to irritate people.
