hi puppy_apprentice

looks interesting.

load from clipboard isn't working for me, is parcellite required as i have clipit? you could use

Code: Select all

xclip -o

to get what's in the clipboard.

some feature requests..

an input box to paste urls into
youtube-dl as a downloader choice

thanks

New version

Added:

- youtube-dll (didn't check because i don't have youtube-dll):

Code: Select all

downloaders="
aria2
axel
curl
youtube-dll
wget
"

funcComboAddItems() {
for item in $downloaders
do
	if [ -e "$(which $item)" ]
	then
		if [ "$item" == "youtube-dll" ]
		then
			echo "<item>"youtube_dl_video"</item>"
			echo "<item>"youtube_dl_ogg"</item>"
		else
			echo "<item>"$item"</item>"
		fi
	fi
done
}

Code: Select all

funcStart_youtube_dl_video() {
	if [ "$1" ] 
	then
		echo youtube-dl "$1" & PID=$!
		echo $(( PID + 1 )) > pid
	else
		youtube-dl -a "$PWD/download_list"
	fi
}

export -f funcStart_youtube_dl_video

funcStart_youtube_dl_ogg() {
	if [ "$1" ] 
	then
		echo youtube-dl -x "$1" & PID=$!
		echo $(( PID + 1 )) > pid
	else
		youtube-dl -x -a "$PWD/download_list"
	fi
}

export -f funcStart_youtube_dl_ogg

- clip:

Code: Select all

funcAddFromClip() {
	if [ -s "$TMPDIR"/inputfile1 ]
	then
		echo -e -n "\n$(xclip -o)" >> "$TMPDIR"/inputfile1
	else
		echo -n "$(xclip -o)" >> "$TMPDIR"/inputfile1
	fi
}

export -f funcAddFromClip

For clipboard wanted to make something like this:

Code: Select all

echo -n $(strings /root/.local/share/parcellite/history | grep "http\|ftp") > "$TMPDIR"/inputfile1

but couldn't find history file for ClipIt

[some1]

Code: Select all

$HOME/.local/share/clipit/history

this is getting good

i fixed a few things in the script ...

a couple of spelling mistakes youtube-dll should be youtube-dl
echo was missing for youtube-dl so wasn't showing in the console.
added aria2 commands also added aria2c which is it's name in bionic.

youtube-dl is working well and it will even download entire playlist from a single link.

did an aria2 test it downloaded a torrent from a magnet link no problem.

thanks
