DownThemAll: News

Sorry again, but I got a bit overwhelmed with/distracted by other stuff so could work less on DownThemAll! Lite than I anticipated, and I also keep running into limitations/quirks/bugs/idiocrasies of the WebExtension APIs (and sometimes HTML5 stuff as implemented by Firefox).

So, even though I wanted to have something presentable by now, I failed my self-set deadline once more.

While my development version can make *some* simple downloads already, there is still problems with other more complicated types of downloads that need e.g. special handling of headers. And downloading large files is still far from what I expect/want performance-wise.

I’ll stop promising certain dates at this point. I will only promise that I’ll work as quick as possible.

For the curious: I started writing the first bits of code back in late August and worked on it since then (of course not full-time, as it doesn’t pay my bills). Now the “big” to-do items are mostly done, and what’s left is to get all the nitty-gritty details and edge cases right, or at least right enough that I won’t be ashamed about the product.
