multiple search
« on: July 18, 2007, 02:42:36 PM »
When I search for certain files I usually need more than one file. It is quite annoying to wait for a search to finish untill you can start another search.
I'd like to start several searches at once. The different are ordered in Tabs yet. Wouldn't it be possible to start one search after the other automatically (and make a coffeebreak in the meantime)?
I'm unsure wheter I could describe exactly what I want. If you have problems to understand my fuzzy wishes just aks.

For me, a search takes about 5 seconds (if global, local takes a lot less). Is it so hard to wait that time? Maybe I just misunderstood your request, but the way I see it, it seems pretty useless.

Regards.

You're a lucky guy. I never did a global search under 90 seconds.

That's what I'm talking about. skolnick's 5 seconds for a global search are immensive less than searches take in my experience.

I removed all servers except ten and you are right. Searches are much faster now. The problem is that some rare files are not to find anymore. I just think it would be a nice feature.
If you don't consider to work on my proposal just say: "We won't work on it!" and I won't bother you any longer about this topic.

I'm thinking about writing a function to filter servers out. I for myself need only sever on port 4661 because I can't connect to others.

Yeah, I only use the 6 donkeyservers, and they all are queried really fast. Using more is waste of time most probably.
