autoget

Autoget is an addon script for mIRC designed to make the entire process of downloading and organizing music from IRC much easier. The big idea here is that you can use Autoget to keep all your downloaded file lists in a database, search that database, take files from that database and put it in your download list for Autoget to download and much much more.

Instead of separately searching for a file in multiple channels, you just type in what you are looking for once and Autoget will take it from there. Placing all your search results in a clean dialog interface. Now instead of cutting and pasting individual search results from message windows and pasting them back into the channel, you just double-click the file you want in Autoget.

Autoget started as just a search tool, but from there it has grown to much much more. The process all starts with the search but from there your files are tracked through the whole queueing and downloading process. Autoget knows when a file request has been accepted and what queue slot it has been placed in and again displays all of this information in a clean interface. Once a file transfer starts, you can monitor it's progress, as well as the progress of all dcc transfers, from the transfers page. When a file completes you'll see it move to the completed section where you can then move the completed file to a directory of your choosing.

There are little features all over the place in Autoget designed specifically to make life easier for mp3 addicts on IRC. And Autoget is a work in constant progress, if you have an idea, let me know. Unlike a lot of scripts I have all the time in the world to keep Autoget up to date and provide constant improvements and bug-fixes.

Enjoy!
