From the README:
- What is GWget
- =============
- GWget allows the user to retrieve multiple files from the web. These
- files can be retrieved in multiple parts and each part retrieved on a
- separate session that the user is connected to the Internet. This is
- most useful to users with dialup connections. The program performs
- this tasks using wget as it's back-end.
+ What is GTransferManager
+ ========================
+
+ GTransferManager allows the user to retrieve multiple files from the
+ web. These files can be retrieved in multiple parts and each part
+ retrieved on a separate session that the user is connected to the
+ Internet. This is most useful to users with dialup connections. The
+ program performs this tasks using wget as it's back-end.
+
+ The program now supports CORBA. This makes easy for other programs
+ to use GTransferManager to handle the transfer of files from the
+ Internet.
+
+ The program has also a applet that communicates with program using
+ CORBA. The applet can launch the program, request for a new download
+ or accept drops of URLs from netscape and give this URLs to GTM.
