Re: Re: [Mldonkey-users] How do you know which sources are full sources?

I care. :)

I want as much information as possible.  I like to know what is going on :)  
mldonkey is severely lacking in this department.

Mldonkeywatch doesn't have the "last seen complete" column for some reason so I 
use the web interface for that.

I usually download very rare files.  Knowing who is the complete source would 
be very helpful for me since it is usually just one guy, while the rest of us 
sources are all battling for bits for weeks on end and then this myserious 
precious source disappears and the file is forever incomplete.  I want to know 
which guy it is so I can msg him and become his new best friend. ;)

Basically you can't. There is no cammnd to actually show what chunks
each client has and the gui protocol doesn't send that info.

But who cares?

The availability shows you what chunks all clinets you are connected
to currently have and the last_seen gives you the oldest time of the
times when you last connected to a client that had a chunk. (confused
yet?).
