auto search

Post by martinkiller1234 » 2003-04-03 09:55

is it possible to make a feature u can turn on/off that auto search....
so u can set it to auto search all items u have in queue everytime u start dc++ every 10/15 sec
example i have 7966 items in share,i must wait 7 sec between each search (i usually wait 10 sec) if i wait 10 sec between each search i have to wait,time to do that = 7966 item * 10 sec wait = 22 hours of clicking on "search for alternate" ZZZZzzzzz...... boring...... is it possible ??

or maybe an option that u can set on/off to search for alternate for some important files manually so every 30 min (example) it search for those files........
example i have 20 files i want quick then set them on auto seach every 30 min

i see the problem alot...... i have just seen a file (1 out of 10 online) then i pressed search for alternate,then it was 11 out of 20 online......

thx.........

Sounds like a good idea to have search frequency tied in with file priority, to some degree or another.

With respect to your primary suggestion, something like Opera's SafeSearch would be a valuable addition to DC++. No sense causing search spam if you can possibly avoid it.
