Features

Aria2::GUI is a graphical user Interface (GUI) for the command-line operated aria2.
It is written in Perl, with usage of the Perl-TK-Modules.
Aria2::gui runs on Linux and Windoze.
It handles not every option of aria2, but some of the mainly used options.

Read the manual of aria2c to get more information.
You can save all active options to a settingfile (*rc).

Requirement

For Linux you need:

Refer to the documentation of your distribution.


For Windoze you need:

Download

Current version is 0.3beta

Download aria2::gui for Linux

Windoze don't accept the Linux-filename. So I renamed aria2::gui to aria2__gui.
Download aria2__gui for Windows

Unzip the downloadfile to any directory.
Call "aria2::gui.pl" (In Windoze: "aria2__gui.pl"). That's all.

Make sure that all required programs are installed.
Make sure that aria2c is in your current PATH.

The active options are stored to any settingfile "*rc" by clicking "Save Settings".
