          Important usage notes for EasyFetcher
================================================================

  For simple use, just type in the document's URL (together
with its protocol specification - ftp:// or http://), and hit
Enter. Note that "document" can refer to any file that exists
on the server, including HTML (Web) files. Here are examples
of the simple usage (all URLs are fictional):
  http://www.zipware.com/windows/32bit/utils/bla-bla.zip
  ftp://ftp.gamehaven.com/pub/win2000/games/ripper.exe
If you specify an empty path on a Web server (you can't use
an empty path for FTP), EasyFetcher will retrieve the default
document for that directory (usually "index.html" or 
"default.htm"). For example, "http://www.zdnet.com/" will get
you the default HTML document for www.zdnet.com (without the
inline graphics, Java applets, and other external files, 
of course); and "www.hotshots.com/LookeeHere/" will return
the default document for the "/LookeeHere" directory at
www.hotshots.com. Just be sure to add the trailing slash
to the name of the directory, otherwise EasyFetcher will
look for a document named "LookeeHere" in the root directory
of the server, which doesn't exist.

Protocols:
 Only the HTTP and FTP protocols are supported.
If the server's name starts with "www" (e.g. www.byte.com),
or the protocol is explicitly specified as http://, EasyFetcher
communicates with the server using HTTP. Otherwise, if no 
protocol is specified (and server's name doesn't start with
"www"), FTP is assumed. So if you need to get a file from an
FTP server that happens to use "www" as the first three letters
of its name, be sure to include ftp:// before its name.
Numerical server addresses are also accepted ("198.56.28.101").
HTTP URLs can use redirection, for example:
  http://www.booknet.com/cgi-bin/hotbooks/info.pl?code=000Z8N

Usernames and passwords:
 Usernames and passwords can be used with FTP servers. They
have to be included in the URL in the following form:
  ftp://your_username:your_password@servername.com
That is, username followed by colon (:), password, the at sign
(@), and the rest of the path, including server, directories,
and the file. For example, if you have a username "Jackie"
with the password "TakeAguess" on the "ftp.fileserver.edu" 
server, and you need a file that is only accessible through
that username, URL will look like this (ftp:// is optional):
  Jackie:TakeAguess@ftp.fileserver.edu/Jackie/Stuff/dolls.zip
Note that you cannot specify a password without supplying a
username, but you can supply a username without a password
(in the form "username@servername.com"), in which case the
default will be used. The defaults are:
  username: anonymous
  password: guest@somewhere.com

Ports:
 You can specify a port to be used to connect to server.
The port has to be supplied after the server name (separated
by a colon ":") and before the path, like this (port 85):
  http://www.hitme.com:85/software/Internet/zipper.zip
Keep in mind that supplying a port doesn't change the
specified (or assumed, if none specified) protocol.

To sum up, here are all the elements of a URL:
   http://users_name:mypassword@www.server.com:16080/directories/file.ext
^protocol^^username^ ^password^ ^server name ^ port ^-- path --^ ^ file ^

Miscellaneous:
 Checking the 'Open the file after download' checkbox at
any time before the download is complete will open the
file (after the transfer is finished) in its associated
application. For example, if you have WinZip installed
on your machine and you downloaded a ZIP file, it will
be opened in WinZip. Executable files (with the .EXE,
.BAT, .COM extensions) will be simply executed. "Opening"
executables automatically is strongly NOT recommended,
unless you are absolutely sure of the file's origin
and purpose. In the case when no association exists
with the type of file you downloaded, you will be
presented with a system dialog that allows you to
choose an app to open the file.
 Estimated time left that is displayed while the file is
being downloaded is based on the size of the file and
the current transfer rate. If the size could not be 
determined, this statistic is not available (the size of
some dynamically generated HTML documents is sometimes
unknown).
 If you get a message saying that a directory or a file does
not exist on the server, make sure you use the correct case
of letters in their names. Unix servers are case-sensitive.
 Web sites requiring authenticated login, Secure HTTP
(https://), or SSL encryption are not supported.
 Finally, there is a great variety of servers on the Net.
Some of them are short and to-the-point in their replies,
and some are talkative. Although EasyFetcher was tested 
with many types of servers and under different conditions,
there is still a chance of an error when logging into a
server (this can also happen due to the server being taken
down for maintenance). If you experience this, you should
always retry, either immediately, or a little later.
 And when nothing seems to work, try restarting your
Internet connection and EasyFetcher.
