Just a few days before feilen posted his "Thingiverse Downloader" @ http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:9292 I also started working on a downloader too.Coincidence is an understatement.Big difference is that mine is meant for Windows and runs on the .NET 3.5 Framework. It integrates with Internet Explorer only at this stage via a right-click menu item.The IE add-on communicates with the downloader app (called ThingGeT) via a socket connection which means this app needs to run in the background if you want to download a Thing. This is taken care of by letting the app startup automatically when Windows starts and minimizing it to the system tray.It creates a folder for the thing you're downloading in the configured location and uses the thing's title as the folder name. A shortcut to the thing's page is then created in the folder and all the selected files of the thing will be downloaded and saved to that folder.At the moment it only has one download thread, downloading one file at a time. In the next version I want it to have 2 or 3 concurrent download threads and to display each item's progress inline in the listview box. I am also contemplating adding a downloaded/completed tab where I can move download items to once completed thereby keeping the current downloads list clean. I can then maybe also add functionality to re-download selected items and maybe also allow the user to browse back to the source page of the thing.This version will also not operate behind a proxy server that requires user credentials. The next version will also address such functionality.
