Title: Is there a history os what we downloaded?
Post by: Justin on October 11, 2007, 04:17:42 AM

Hi all
I have accidentally erased a number of files I downloaded recently. Unfortunately I don't know what I erased, but want the files back. Is there any way I can view a history of what I downloaded? That way I can see what files I downloaded recently, then download them again.
Thanks very much.

Did you know that there are logfiles in you .amule folder?

I just checked and I found a file named "logfile". It only gave stuff that happened today. I am really looking for a way to see what I downloaded and when fo the past month. Something I could look through ordered by date (many things to look through!)

I don't think aMule stores the dates of the files it downloaded, so your request is hard to fulfill (but may be (and hopefully) I'm wrong).

Here's how you could see all the files that are known to aMule (run the following line in a terminal or the console assuming you're using Linux, FreeBSD/NetBSD/OpenBSD, Solaris/OpenSolaris and/or Mac OS X):

Code: [Select]

strings -n 9 ~/.aMule/known.met | uniq | less(The "strings" command is part of "binutils" so you may need to install it first.)
(Just ignore the file hashes.)

Here's another thread that may interest you:
question about history (http://forum.amule.org/index.php?topic=12768.0)

EDIT: Ooohhh, I see you already knew about that thread, sorry for this unneeded post of mine (I didn't notice your reply in that thread as it is the last one).
