[Help-gnunet] Download management

[Ludovic Courtès]

Hi,

I've been using GNUnet for a few weeks and I sometimes found it annoying
to restart all downloads by hand after restarting my computer.  So I
wrote a tiny Guile script (for version 1.6.x) called
`gnunet-download-manager' (attached file) which does exactly this: it
stores information about ongoing downloads so as to be able to restart
them later.  It just acts as a "wrapper" for `gnunet-download', which
means that defining the following alias makes it possible to
transparently use it:

  alias gnunet-download='gnunet-download-manager.scm download'

Downloads may then be resumed with "gnunet-download-manager.scm resume",
and they may be stopped with "gnunet-download-manager.scm killall".

So long as this feature is not part of `gnunet-download' (and would it
be a good idea?), I thought this script might be useful to other people
so here it is.  ;-)

Of course, comments and bug reports are welcome.

Ludovic.
